Responding belatedly to Global Processes/Local Issues LO19812 Marilee
Taussig
I think this quote describes an excellent opportunity of using a company's
brand as a tool to encapsulate a companies purpose and vision . It is
exactly what great woprld class brands have achieved. It can be come the
tangible expression of both the core purpose of the business both
internally and externally. It can also let different culture adapt their
brand's expression.
