Morris SAE International 2002 Annual Report 1 SAE International What is a Brand? The quest to define and maximize the impact of the SAE International brand led to a yearlong project that result- ed in a new logo and some essential changes in the way the organization uses its logos. Marketing texts might define a brand as a “name, sign or symbol used to identify your products or services and to differentiate them from goods of your competitors.” In short, a brand is a promise. By identify- ing and authenticating a product or service with the SAE brand, we deliver a pledge of satisfaction and quality to all who encounter our brand. The SAE Organizational Identity and Branding Manual was created in 2002 to give SAE staff and mem- ber volunteers a resource for correct- ly using and promoting the SAE brand. One of the important outcomes of the SAE branding program in 2002 was the creation of an SAE Aerospace logo that will help unify the many members of SAE who work in the aerospace com- munity. The logo also defines the re- lationship to SAE, and it will help brand the thousands of aerospace standards, events, and publications SAE creates for aerospace professionals. 2 Connectivity Creativity Change SAE Automotive Headquarters We Connect 2002 brought re- • Strengthen the membership of the industry representatives.

Part of the shift is in the amount of discussion — there is certainly an increase in media This shift is a strong signal for renewed commitment to the FIRST T coverage.

When Bazil speaks to K through 12 girls, she wants to make it clear that they have career choices. “Because we’re trying to grow the pipeline, we want to make sure that they realize they can be great scientists, mathematicians and engineers. These are high-paying careers that o er them independence and opportunity for growth throughout their lives.” Find out more about Girls’ Fast Track Races powered by Ford at fordsteamexperience.com. 1National Science Foundation, National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics. 2015.
