  • Brand Engagement
    BRAND ENGAGEMENT How Employees Make or Break Brands Ian P. Buckingham “Brands need to be backed by accountable, reachable people inside businesses (not websites, and interminable electronic answering systems). The way to customer loyalty is not necessarily the brand, but the business behind the brand. How that business acts and reacts, how it deals with relationships, how it deals with complaints and problems, and above all how it interfaces with customers and consumers is the essence of marketing. The worry is, many businesses seem to adopt a different negative strategy. In this sense, political marketing can be the ultimate example of short-term hype and glossy promises, exchanged for votes; and then – post-election – consumers (née voters) are forgotten … until the next time! And in 2007, there are many examples of poor, inappropriate, and even Machiavellian marketing than ever before. When this is coupled with declining levels of customer satisfaction, and all the evidence pointing to a downward trend, customers and their needs need to be elevated to center stage if we’re ever to stop and reverse the slide. In this challenging and engaging new book, Ian Buckingham puts these factors in stark relief, demanding the attention of senior executives, line managers, consumers and employees alike.” Philip J.

    Global Imbalances from the Historical Perspective by Marcela Veselkova Central European University Department of International Relations and European Studies Dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Supervisor: Julius Horvath CEU eTD Collection Word count: 88101 Budapest, October 2010 DECLARATION I hereby declare that no parts of the thesis have been submitted to no other institution different from CEU towards a degree. To my knowledge nor does the thesis contains unreferenced material or ideas from other authors. Marcela Veselkova …………………….. CEU eTD Collection ii Abstract This dissertation examines the global imbalances from the historical perspective. The main aim is to examine the factors that determine the current account balances. To this end, this dissertation relies on the combination of the historical narrative and econometric analysis. The former traces changes in the current account imbalances and their reflex influence exerted on the course of economic and political events. The latter determines the short- and medium-run determinants of the current account balances in two eras of globalization. The results of Chapter 5 suggest that the transitory shocks to income are the main source of variation in the trade balance, whereas the permanent shocks to income determine the changes in the income Thus, in the short-run it is possible to increase the current account balance by fiscal or monetary tightening. Chapter 6 investigates the determinants of the current account balances for 14 countries in the period of 1865-1913 and 107 countries for the period of 1970-2007. The comparison has yielded several similarities.
