What Andy Thinks...
THE BUSINESS OF BUSINESS IS PEOPLE. FAILURE TO PUT HUMAN INSIGHT AND MOTIVATION AT THE CORE OF YOUR BUSINESS AND BRAND STRATEGY AND TO BE ENDLESSLY CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE WANT AND NEED IS A SURE WAY TO MAKE YOUR BUSINESS IRRELEVANT.
- Great organisations are driven by a relentless focus what matters most to their customer, not any customer but the customers that their brand best serves – that’s how they create value.
- Brand is everybody’s business. It doesn’t matter where you sit in the organisation, you have to understand how what you do every day can help build or destroy your company’s reputation.
- Intellectual property is the safeguard of innovation, of ideas and of business value – too few people understand it. Those that do protect it jealously and exploit it intelligently. That’s how they make money.
- Brand and business strategy, customer and employee experience, product and marketing are all becoming inseparable, the implications for how leaders organise and manage, empower and reward people are profound.
