Trust and Brand Management
Author: Hanna Górska-Warsewicz
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040273394
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Trust and Brand Management covers the main topics of heritage-based corporate brand management and its relationship to external factors and performance. The benefits for readers of this book lie in several aspects: knowledge of corporate brand management, brand heritage and related concepts, theoretical and practical foundations of brand management and brand heritage, and empirically supported research on the relationship among brand heritage, brand management practices, antecedents, and outcomes of heritage-based corporate brand management. This book consists of two parts. The first part provides a literature review and theoretical and practical background on brand heritage, its antecedents and outcomes, brand management approaches, and heritage-based corporate brand management. The second part presents the results of an empirical study as structural equation modeling to establish the relationship among brand heritage, corporate brand management practices, antecedents (brand history, culture, identity, and authenticity), and outcomes of heritage-based corporate brand management (brand trust, brand equity, and performance). In addition, the book includes 31 case studies of well-known heritage brands presenting their history, marketing communications, development, and positioning strategies. The benefit for managers is the presentation of terms and specific tools related to corporate brand management in the market and customer outcomes.

Enough for One Lifetime
Author: Matthew E. Hermes
Publisher: Chemical Heritage Foundation
ISBN: 9780841233317
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 374
Book Description
This is a story of invention and chemistry and the ineluctable fate of the inventor of nylon. Wallace Carothers was hired by DuPont in 1928 to lead a program called basic research. Carothers brought a passion to his work, and wanted to synthesize large molecules that would challenge Emil Fischer's largest molecule of 4200 molecular weight. In a burst of creativity in the spring of 1930, Carothers gave us our first truly synthetic rubber and fiber. The rubber quickly became neoprene; the fiber, in time, led to nylon. Carothers took an infant science called polymer chemistry, defined it, and guided it toward its present maturity. He gave us condensation polymerization. Hermes tells Carothers' story - his sudden, dramatic research successes and his relentless slide into depression, alcohol, and suicide - through Carothers' revealing letters to his professional colleagues (Roger Adams, C. S. Marvel, John R. Johnson) and his family and college classmates. At the end, Carothers' habit was to hide himself from his co-workers and friends. Hermes' narrative searches for the shrouded heart of the inventor's story by using stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald and other contemporaries as parables from which Carothers' truth may be drawn.

The Hermès Scarf
Author: Nadine Coleno
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780500515181
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The Hermès scarf is a style icon. Worn by royalty and celebrities, coveted and admired, and now avidly collected, this deceptively simple square of silk is much more than just a fashion accessory: it is the stuff of legend. Since the first scarf made its debut in 1937, the House of Hermès has produced more than two thousand different designs. From the classic scarves that embody the Hermès tradition to the wildly imaginative stylings of contemporary designers, the House is always forging new paths and yet is never afraid to take a fresh and often witty approach to its own heritage. A scarf is not the work of a single individual; at each stage of its creation, talent and craftsmanship combine to create a work of art. These qualities shine through in the illustrations, by turns playful and poetic, which lead the reader into a richly colored world with a multitude of motifs. They range from the equestrian themes that are internationally associated with the Hermès brand, through French history and the natural world, to global cultures. From vibrant opulence to subtle harmony, every scarf conveys a mood and every one tells a story.

The Eternal Hermes
Author: Antoine Faivre
Publisher: Red Wheel/Weiser
ISBN: 1609257367
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
From the Western esotericism pioneer, a “work of lucid scholarship [that reveals] the full range of Hermes’ innumerable manifestations in European history” (Parabola). Hermes—the fascinating, mercurial messenger of the gods, eloquent revealer of hidden wisdom, and guardian of occult knowledge—has played a central role in the development of esotericism in the West. Drawing upon many rare books and manuscripts, this highly illustrated work explores the question of where Hermes Trismegistus came from, how he came to be a patron of the esoteric traditions, and how the figure of Hermes has remained lively and inspiring to our own day. “Great erudition blended with a highly refined metaphysical sensibility brings the great Hermes to life and allows this powerful psychospiritual archetype to speak once again [and perhaps even play a few much-needed tricks on us].” —Jacob Needleman, author of The Heart of Philosophy “Faivre’s remarkable achievement in this single volume is to combine the historical richness of the Hermetic tradition with its relevance to understanding the circumambulations of the psyche today as it pursues its spiritual quest.” —June Singer, author of Boundaries of the Soul “This book is an impressive and compelling contribution to the puzzling question of both the source and perdurance of Hermes in his variety of shape-shifting guises. From Alexandria to Amsterdam, Athens to America, this thrice-great Hermes keeps showing up, perhaps even more than in antiquity!” —David L. Miller, author of The New Polytheism
