Design is Everything
Tom Peters, Provocateur, The Tom Peters Company
I am a design fanatic. Personally. I'm not artistic at all. But,
I love cool stuff. I love what I love. I hate what I hate. But,
it goes much farther than that, far beyond the personal. Design
has become a professional obsession. I simply believe design is
the principal reason for emotional attachment (or detachment!) relative
to a product or service or experience or brand proposition. Design,
as I see it, is arguably the #1 determinant of whether a product-service-experience-brand
proposition stands out or doesn't. Has integrity or doesn't. Connects
or doesn't. So…why do so few pay (obsessive) attention to
it?

Tapping the Unmet Need: Creating Trust and Loyalty
through Meaningful Brand Experiences
David W. Norton, Vice President, Research and Experience Strategy,
Yamamoto Moss
Consumers now place a premium on experiences that allow them to
actively engage with family, friends, social causes, and principles
they believe in. Organizations that fulfill this as yet unmet need
have a powerful means of attracting and retaining constituents and
also have the opportunity to affect future cultural norms and consumption
behavior. By describing trends in consumer behavior and social change,
Norton will demonstrate why creating trust and loyalty requires
the creation of both economic and cultural capital that matters
to individuals and communities. His presentation will address trends
in experiential marketing and delivery, models for understanding
behavior and environments, and recommendations for engineering change
in consumer behavior.

Trust: A Necessity to Have, A Challenge to Maintain,
and a Difficulty if Lost—A Leadership Perspective
Carl James Yankowski, Former President of Sony Electronics
and
CEO of Palm
Trust is the glue that holds people, marriages, deals, and organizations
together. More powerful than contracts or authority, trust enables
people and organizations to achieve results that exceed the sum
of the parts. Would you sign off on an otherwise good acquisition
if you didn't trust the lawyers? Can you lead an organization if
groups don't trust one another—or you? This presentation will
explore the different aspects of trust from a leadership perspective.

The Changing Nature of Trust: Using Design Research
to Understand Trust and Support Brand Innovation
Darrel K. Rhea, Chief Strategic Officer, Cheskin
Trust is essential to the development of successful brands. However,
the nature of trust is changing—the complexity of our current
world makes trust a more deliberate and less intuitive concept.
Customers are becoming more savvy, and winning their trust requires
a more rigorous effort than in the past. Darrel Rhea will discuss
the components of brand trust and how these are shifting. He will
present the challenges design management faces in understanding
this shift and the research methods and strategies that design can
use to create and maintain brand trust, as well as inspire new brand
innovation.

The Measure and Mismeasure of Brand
Lynne O'Connor, Partner, Lippincott & Margulies, Inc.
As companies today struggle to maintain and build customer trust,
there is heightened interest in measuring and growing the brand.
Many companies begin this process by measuring their brand in financial
terms. But assigning a dollar figure to your brand's worth today
won't help you make it worth more tomorrow, nor will it provide
the insight necessary to build customer loyalty. Lynne O'Connor
introduces a strategic process called Strategic Brand AssessmentSM
that goes beyond conventional brand measurement tools to provide
a roadmap for increasing brand value and driving customer behavior.
Further, this comprehensive approach to brand measurement can be
used to monitor your brand's health over time, closing the circle
on effective brand management.

widespread trust that has been lost? David Reyes-Guerra offers a
unique perspective on what it takes to earn trust. Using a Brand
Continuum, he will explore 10 things organizations can do to ensure
