You must not only focus on the consumer, but also on what it does to you internally - getting people aligned to the strategic mission of the company - what it does to the suppliers, governments, all your stakeholders.
Martin Sorrell
In an era of transparency, you can have innovation without branding, but you cannot have branding without innovation.
Martin Sorrell
You have to see it on a broader level. But you also have to activate it properly.

If you run a country and want to put it on the global map you don't have so many choices. You can get the Olympics, the World Cup or a Formula One race. And the first two are only every four years - and you have them only once.
