2020 will be remembered as a year of unprecedented change -- how has this impacted global brands?
In this episode we talk to Interbrand's CEO North America Daniel Binns about the results from their Best Global Brands 2020 report.
We discuss the fortunes of long standing brand leaders like Google, Apple and Microsoft, and the reasons why some brands like Oracle have fallen down the rankings. It's unsurprising that Zoom was a new entrant to the rankings, but how have other brands fared during the pandemic and resulting financial meltdown? How are B2B brands adjusting? And what can B2B CMOs learn from this?

Brands managers often get wrapped-up in the intricacies of brand expression, reputation management, and how to build a powerful and lasting impression with audiences. What is often forgotten is that at their core, brands are intellectual property that provide rights and protections for the brand owner.
In this episode we take with an expert on the legal dimensions of brands: Saul Perloff is Partner and head of the advertising practice at the international law firm of Norton Rose Fulbright. He counsels companies on issues related to advertising, commercial disputes, IP protection, compliance and brand protection strategies.
In the episode we discuss the basics of brands and the law, the ways that brands can be protected, how to create brand equity and goodwill, and what can get brand managers in legal trouble. Saul also explains that an apple is an apple is an apple, and does a very good impression of the Intel jingle. You'll enjoy it!

In the second part of our interview with Edelman's Executive Director Tonia Ries, we discuss brand trust and the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Edelman's latest research shows that in the current crisis people turn to employers and business for information much more than governments. The research is a fascinating and sometimes frightening insight to how we're reacting to news and information about the disease, and what the long-term implications are for brand builders.

Edelman has just celebrated the 20th year of the Edelman Trust Barometer, research that examines global levels of trust and credibility in institutions like governments, NGOs, the media and brands. In this episode I interview Tonia Ries, executive director in charge of the Barometer. We talk about what exactly trust is, how you earn it, and why levels of trust are in decline. Tonia also explains how brands must adapt to build trust.
This is the first of two interviews with Tonia. In the next episode, we discuss the importance of trust during the current pandemic.
One Note: With word-from-home mandates in place we're all struggling to get a good internet connection, and near the beginning of the interview we have a few audio issues. I don't think this distracts from a very interesting conversation.
