Branding · The Brand Matrix

The Brand Matrix is our core tool in brand development processes, helping businesses define their position, set direction, and turn their corporate brand into a real competitive advantage.
A blueprint for corporate brand clarity
In short, The Brand Matrix is a blueprint and toolbox we use in brand development – whether a corporate brand needs to be defined, redefined, or sharpened. The methodology guides executive teams through a structured set of questions that examine identity aspects related to the organization’s mission, culture, competences, values, and other defining characteristics.
By working with The Brand Matrix in workshops and projects, we help companies articulate who and what they are at their core. It offers a strategic focus to clarify the brand core, align it internally, and communicate it effectively to inspire both employees and customers.
The Brand Matrix book
In the book The Brand Matrix – Corporate Brand Leadership Starts from the Inside, where the method is introduced, brand strategist Dr. Mats Urde takes the reader on a journey through the Corporate Brand Identity Matrix and its practical application. Urde shows that the corporate brand and the organization can never exist in isolation. They are inseparable. They need to be aligned. They are two dimensions of the same thing.
