Cum sa NU faci un branding de oras
Un studiu de caz powered by Primaria Iasi - oras propus a fi Capitala Culturala in 2012. (?!?)
Acum cateva saptamani s-a trezit directorul Direcţiei Strategii din cadrul primăriei sa organizeze un concurs…. fara un regulament oficial.
Apoi a trecut timpul si nu au mai dat nici un semn, timp in care au aparut reactiile participantilor.
Astazi 23 noiembrie apare in presa cum ca nu a fost ales nici un castigator pentru ca … nu au indeplinit conditiile.
Si aici trebuie urmarite comentariile participantilor, care spun foarte corect ca daca nu exista regulament cum poate fi el incalcat?
Ideea principala nu este ca reprezentantii orasului nu au avut ce alege din lucrarile unor simpli cetateni ci faptul ca se vrea sa se creeze un brand de oras, care sa mai ajunga si capitala europeana FARA a se apela la o campanie
adevarata, la niste profesionisti in branding.
Cand vrei sa creezi un brand, trebuie sa incepi cu propriii angajati, sa ii respecti si ii faci sa se identifice cu brandul;
asa cum inca in Administratia Publica din Romania NU se face.
Cam mare diferenta intre strategiile romanesti si cele din … Atlanta, ca tot am mai discutat despre acest oras.
Online business simulation - L’Oreal e-Strat 2008
Am aflat destul de tarziu despre acest “concurs” simulare de business de la L’Oreal, denumita e-Strat asa ca daca vreti sa formati o echipa de 3 care sa participe trebuie sa va inscrieti in urmatoarele 3 zile, cand e deadline-ul.
Este o simulare online, la nivel global, unde cele 1700 de echipe care vor trece in runda a 2 (din 5 runde in total) . Nu am avut timp sa rasfoiesc foarte mult site-ul dar am remarcat ca acest concurs este impartit in 2 undergraduate si MBA, si de asemenea am vazut ca exista si un concurs dedicat profesorilor.
Tin doar sa mentionez:
You will translate your strategy into critical decisions about all aspects of the company: pricing, production volume and capacity, research and development, marketing, advertising, brand positioning and diversity & equity… In each round, you will have more than 30 charts and graphs to analyze. You will be asked to make over 150 decisions!

Mult succes tuturor.
