closeAre top managers aware of the importance of corporate branding? Who is responsible for managing the Master Brand in organizations? To what extent does the corporate brand facilitate international expansion?
Branding as a professional area has gained importance in the last few years in Spain, but there is still a long way to go: many participants of the business community still confuse brand with its visual representation (84 %), most of the companies still don’t have a team dedicated to brand management (54.3 %), corporate culture is not sufficiently promoted/shared internally (39 %), key vendors are predominantly designers (71 %) and engagement of the top management is insufficient (29 %).
