Diversity in the workplace brings harmony among employees, bolstering the company’s reputation, hastening decision-making, and promoting comparative advantage.
Branding is no longer only a business marketing strategy. It has evolved over the decades into a personal strategy as well.
In a nutshell, branding is how something or someone differentiates itself from other somethings or someone’s. For instance, for those of us over 50 will remember when the Kleenex company became quite well-known for its tissue products. And over time, we watched the word “Kleenex” become synonymous with the word tissue – regardless of which company was actually making them. Excellent branding is when your name becomes the standard within an industry or business space.
