BHO5504 – INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT (35%)
The goal of this assignment is to allow you to consolidate what you have learned in the class, from the book chapters and other references and to apply that knowledge to this assignment on branding. This is an individual assessment. For this assessment you should focus on the questions asked and illustrate the analysis with appropriate and relevant examples, arguments and theoretical frameworks to demonstrate your mastery and knowledge of the subject matter. Thorough background research (analysing the questions based on relevant topics in this unit, models and frameworks along with strong arguments supported by credible and relevant sources) will assist you in achieving a good mark for this assignment.
The assignment should include a minimum of 10 (ten) references from textbooks and refereed or peer-reviewed academic journals and an additional minimum of 5 (five) relevant references from newspapers, business magazines, industry white papers, company reports, credible websites or other information sources such as personal interviews. Please avoid unknown and unreliable websites as well as commentary and opinion from unknown and non-expert commentators.
Individual Assignment (respond to all questions):
Go to Interbrand’s website (www.interbrand.com).
Compare and contrast the top ten ‘best global brands’ from the years 2009 and 2019.
What were some of the reasons for these shifts in brand value over the decade?
Which global brands did not make it to the 2019 list that were in the top 10 in 2009?
Examining now the top 20 best global brands from 2019, with which brand/s do you most relate to? Why?
Thinking about yourself as a brand, what do you do (both online and offline) to ‘brand’ yourself? How would you assess your own brand value?
