Brands are basically the way you portray yourself (this applies to individuals and organisation). They’re also the way people see or understand you to be. Your brand is basically the persona built by a combination of what show as what people generally perceive as who or what you are.

Thus no wise organisation cannot leave everything to chance about how they’re perceived. It’s a matter of survival.
