Notes de l'éditeur
Since the dawn of time, storytelling has always been at the heart of our interactions and communities and in today’s digital age, it’s as important as ever. The digitization of our business and personal worlds continues unabated. Superfast broadband and the relentless advance of technology means we are connected 24-7. Mass, niche and social media networks continue to evolve to meet our voracious appetite for and ability to generate and access content. We have therefore seen an explosion of content and the key impact for our business include:
The quality of identity & differentiation
Relevance and value
Who controls this content, and thus reputation
With this digitization and the much publicized broader political context comes a more cynical outlook from voters, customers, employees and candidates. Reputation sites are now commonplace and not just the preserve of Glassdoor or Indeed. Transparency, truth and accountability are disciplines that we need to be better at – and this must start with both a clear vision and an ability to tell our stories in a relevant and authentic manner.
Purpose led companies will outperform their competitors in the long run
Over the past few years, discussion in corporate circles on the topic of purpose has centred on a single key questions - Why do we, as an organization, exist
Sustainable Brands is the premier global community of brand innovators who are shaping the future of commerce worldwide. Since 2006, our goal has been to inspire, engage, and equip business leaders and practitioners who see social and environmental challenges as an essential driver of brand innovation, value creation, and positive impact.
business is the point at which its people come together with its customers to produce relevant services/products and memorable experiences
Customer trends & needs define and dictate our products & solutions. Great talent innovates, shapes and delivers great products and experiences to our customers. One is irrelevant without the other So it stands to reason that we need great talent to differentiate us to our customers whilst our organisations need to be agile, innovative and lean to succeed. It further stands that bringing together the many different aspects of the brand into one multi - dimensional experience will enable us to get ahead of the curve - the sum being greater than the parts. For those that can get this right, the opportunity is competitive advantage through people and business performance.
