Recenzje

’Being in the midst of revamping and rebranding my business, I found this book very useful. I wanted to understand the concept of Corporate Design and its impact and what needed to be considered. The book was very useful from a practical point of view but also very informative in terms of the history and evolution of the concept and the status of design today. ... The book is incredibly thorough and I would highly recommend it to anyone involved in corporate design, either as a consultant or business owner. It would also be very useful as a textbook for students. The chapters are clearly laid out and the headings and sub-sections make it easy as a reference book. I also like the use of the case study which is used throughout the book to demonstrate various elements relating to each chapter. ... I found it a very enjoyable read; was able to learn a lot from it and will definitely use as a reference in the future.’ Thora Thorsdottir, specialist transition consultant and owner of T Thorsdottir
