(2018) In LBMG Strategic Brand Management - Masters Paper Series BUSN21 20182Department of Business Administration
- Abstract
- Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the extent to which a strongly identity driven (brand oriented) organization in the not-for-profit sector can meet the expectations of the market’s wants and needs and still stay true to its identity.
Methodology: Literature review, case studies
Findings: The paper finds that brand oriented organizations that are fully aligned with their identity in their market oriented actions seem to be more successful. Furthermore, it finds that being brand oriented and driven by the identity is not enough. An organization must not only see itself as a brand, but also act as one in order to achieve the best possible outcome when performing market oriented activities.
