Does Your Brand Really Communicate What You Think It Does? by Alexia Vernon - Dec, 2010 Although we like to think that we are pretty good at identifying how others see us, most of us can still use a studio audience from time-to-time to test out our assumptions. I received a clear reminder of this in one of my recent workshops.
