Abstract

We argue that creating an appealing corporate brand requires consideration of both internal and external stakeholders. A model for managing corporate brands is described in terms of the process of increasing the congruency between brand identity components and narrowing the gap between a brand's identity and its reputation. Propositions are derived from the model and managerial implications explored.
