Companies sometimes go through turbulent times, but their brands frequently withstand these difficulties and stay over time. As important as brands are for a company’s long-term success, the study of how to build strong brands has been somewhat neglected in business schools’ programs. Brand Management is an advanced Marketing elective that addresses the key issues of brand asset management faced by firms in the 21st century. Brand Management helps to integrate theory and practice in order to provide students with an actionable theoretical framework that they can use in the workplace. Class discussions will focus on providing theoretical tools for uncovering and understanding the associations that consumers establish with their brands, and for predicting the effects of these associations on brand-related judgments and behaviors. This course draws heavily on theories of consumer behavior to explain how consumers react to a firm’s brand strategies.
