When Your Brand Becomes Your Business
Why do some companies thrive for decades while others vanish overnight? Kodak once dominated photography so completely that "Kodak moment" entered our everyday vocabulary. It ranked among the world's four most valuable brands. Then it lost $30 billion in market value and filed for bankruptcy in 2012. The irony? Kodak invented the first digital camera in 1975 and poured $5 billion into digital imaging research. The problem wasn't technology or planning-it was that Kodak treated its brand as a marketing department concern rather than as the DNA of the entire business. This distinction separates companies that endure from those that collapse. Your brand isn't what you say in advertisements; it's what you do every single day, in every decision, at every level. When Sam Palmisano became IBM's CEO in 2002, he didn't refresh the logo or launch flashy campaigns. He recognized something fundamental: you can't deliver greatness to customers if your employees don't embody it first. With 40% of IBM's 300,000 employees working remotely or at client sites across 170 countries, Palmisano needed more than a mission statement-he needed shared values that would guide decisions when no manager was watching. In July 2003, IBM launched "ValuesJam," a 72-hour global conversation on the company intranet where employees worldwide contributed ideas, vented frustrations, and debated what IBM should stand for, producing three core values that became the operating system for every IBM decision.
