EXECUTIVE SEMINAR:
TUESDAY, JANUARY 22, 2002
"Converting Brand Equity into Shareholder Value"
Part of a Seminar Series on "Growing Intellectual Capital
Assets---A Revolution in Management"
By Mr. Don Presson, President, IC Growth, Inc. &
By Mr. Ross Halleck, Chief Executive Officer, Halleck
Invitation-only. No fee. 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Value today is created primarily from the growth of an organization's
intellectual capital assets (ICAs). Yet, management methodologies
around ICAs have evolved slowly. In conjunction with IC Growth,
the Center is offering a Seminar Series "Growing Intellectual Capital
Assets---A Revolution in Management," focused on converting ICAs
to shareholder value. The Seminar Series will cover intellectual
capital assets, including intellectual property, customer capital,
organizational capital, and branding.
The first Seminar on January 22 focuses on branding as an intellectual
capital asset. It will be presented by Halleck, Silicon Valley's
preeminent creative services agency that works with companies to
build lasting brand relationships with their customers, along with
I.C. Growth.
DESCRIPTION
In the latter part of the last century, intangible
assets became responsible for creating more value than tangible
assets in the overall economy. During the Dot.com era, however,
"Brand Building" developed an unfortunate association with "Burn
Rate." In truth, when considering real companies that provide real
value to their constituents, brand equity can be demonstrated to
enhance shareholder value measurably.
Brand is ultimately the price someone is willing to pay for a
good or service over and above the price with no brand. Every organization,
from its initial beginnings to a mature multi-billion dollar enterprise,
must develop a brand strategy.
BENEFITS FROM PARTICIPATION
Key benefits of this seminar include:
How a Brand Strategy is instrumental to managing intangible
assets;
How Brand Strategy can be converted into an intellectual
capital asset called brand equity; and
How to grow brand equity and measure its impact on shareholder
value.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
Senior executives in both management and marketing
responsible for delivering increasing value to their shareholders,
employees, and customers will be attending this Executive Seminar
tonight.
