Brand Reputation

Introducing the two-part series:
Building a Strong Brand Reputation
Assessing and Building Positive Brand Perception

Location: Virtual

OVERVIEW

In today’s hyper-connected and AI-amplified landscape, brand perception is no longer shaped solely by what organisations say — but by what stakeholders see, share, and experience in real time.

This virtual masterclass, Brand Reputation, equips practitioners with a structured, practical approach to understanding, managing, and strengthening brand reputation in 2026 and beyond. Participants will learn how to conduct a brand perception audit, identify perception gaps, leverage AI responsibly for monitoring and insights, and translate findings into a proactive reputation management framework.

Moving beyond theory, this masterclass combines real-time case scenarios, practical tools, and applied exercises — ensuring participants leave with clear action steps to protect, position, and future-proof their brand reputation.

Key learning outcomes:

  • Differentiate clearly between brand identity and brand image to uncover perception gaps.
  • Conduct a structured brand perception audit across stakeholders, channels, and competitors.
  • Analyse customer feedback, sentiment data, and market positioning to identify key drivers of reputation.
  • Detect emerging themes, early warning signals, and reputational risks before they escalate.
  • Understand how AI influences brand narratives, sentiment, and speed of amplification.
  • Leverage AI-powered tools for real-time monitoring, insight generation, and trend analysis.
  • Anticipate and mitigate risks such as misinformation, deepfakes, and reputational volatility.
  • Develop a proactive, values-aligned reputation management framework that strengthens trust.
  • Align internal culture, leadership visibility, and employee advocacy with external brand perception.
  • Translate insights into prioritised action plans with clear measurement and reporting rhythms.
