Delivering on your mission as a recipe for success seems obvious. With competing priorities from internal and external stakeholders, however, it isn’t always easy. This webinar will examine how a focus on mission—and using it to “dream, do, and dare”—can drive brands to be perceived as peerless and priceless.
Columbia Business School adjunct professor JP Kuehlwein and his co-author Wolf Schaefer call such successes “Ueber-Brands”—brands that rise above utility and value and accrue meaning beyond the material. In this webinar, they will join leaders from celebrated brands like Ben & Jerry’s to discuss how their brands have ventured to “dream, do, and dare” on important efforts such as sustainability, social justice, and inclusion.
