Design management levels
Design management levels
Design is active at three levels in any organisation: strategic, tactical and operational. At the strategic level, the overall polcies, missions and agendas are defined – and it is to these agendas that design must connect. At the tactical level, the teams, processes and systems of specific business units or functions come into play. At the operational level, design manifests itself in the physical and tangible produst, services and experiences – the implementation of projects and processes the customer can actually ‘touch’.
From: ‘Design Management’ - Kathryn Best
Design
**Design vision•Every process or project starts (should start) with a vision, mission, strategy“Who are we? What is our goal? What opportunities do we see? How to correspond to out identity?”

Branding
Product > brand(groceries)‘A brand represents the products and services it guarantees, as well as the functional and emotional associations.’ (Borja de Mozota)

The brand
A brand is a set of mental associations, held by the consumer, which add to the perceived value of a product or service’ (Keller, 1998). These associations should be unique (exclusivity), strong and positive (desirable).
A brand’s assets are brand awareness, beliefs of exclusivity and superiority of some valued benefit, and emotional bonding.
Product & Brand
Product or brand•‘Manufacturer makes products, consumer buys a brand’ (Kapferer (1997))•‘…presenting products as concepts: the brand as experience or lifestyle, rather than as ‘goods’. (Naomi Klein (2000))
•‘What is increasingly being produced are not material objects, but signs: Product styling as well as branding is about signs.’(Lash/Urry (1994))
•‘Decline of the brands: The aristocracy of the brand is dead. Long live the meritocracy of product.’ (Surowiecki in ‘Wired’, (2004))
