»The Right to Brand«
Lessons from an emerging market
»The Right to Brand« is a first-hand account written by Yasmin Merican an Asian business professional in an emerging market on the subject of brand building, competency development and solutions. The book proposes that established best practices in brand management, which have contributed to the competitiveness of the more mature brands, are not as effective within emerging market organizations, where brand orientation and commitment may not be as deep or as strategic.
