Description

Effective sustainability communication can deliver business value. Get it wrong, however, and the reputational damage will be costly. Stakeholders, and the general public as well as activists, are unforgiving of companies whose products, services, business practices or culture fall short of their socially responsible rhetoric. Based on close to one hundred in-depth interviews with leading experts, Christian Conrad and Marjorie Thompson's The New Brand Spirit helps corporate communications and marketing professionals tackle this conundrum by providing a first-hand view of eight distinct and relevant stakeholder perspectives. Nineteen comprehensive and well-researched best practice cases from sustainability leaders like IBM, Unilever, Marks & Spencer and Puma will inspire all those tasked with communicating sustainability with practical and applicable tools and lessons learned. The result is a book that will enable senior executives, corporate communication professionals and brand managers to decide when, to whom and how to communicate sustainability related messages - and when not to.

Reviews
'There isn't a business person on the planet that isn't concerned about sustainability practices across the stakeholder spectrum. Conrad and Thompson offer not only big strategic insights here but they have also curated the most comprehensive set of case stories I know of. This is important work and will be referenced time and time and time again.' Jonathan Mildenhall, VP Global Advertising Strategy & Creative Excellence, Coca-Cola 'The stream of global communications is ever flowing. A current of social responsibility cuts through it, while an undertow of misunderstanding preys on our perceptions. Marjorie EllisThompson and Christian Conrad help pilot us through with clear thinking and inspiring case histories of successful corporate responsibility.' Tim Love, Vice Chairman Omnicom Group and CEO Omnicom Asia Pacific India Middle East Africa 'Marjorie EllisThompson pioneered Corporate Social Responsibility twenty years ago when she established a specialist unit within Saatchi & Saatchi. At that time Marketing Directors shied away, disbelieving they could find mutual benefit between their brands and not-for-profit causes. Well those same Marketing Directors can now read the error of their ways in this definitive compendium of success stories. Choose to ignore Conrad and Thompson at your peril.' Marcus Brown, Executive Vice President, Young & Rubicam, EMEA 'The role of business is to make the world a better place. The New Brand Spirit is an indispensable companion on this often complex and challenging journey. It's everything you expect from Marjorie Ellis Thompson and Christian Conrad: direct, candid, inspirational, uncompromising, wise, and crystal clear about what to do.' Kevin Roberts, CEO Worldwide, Saatchi & Saatchi 'With the most fundamental debate globally being around responsible capitalism and resource constrained growth this book arrives at an important time. The development of new sustainable business models is integrating corporat
