It is no surprise to any of you that the more meaningful your brand is to people, or customers, the more successful it will be. Well the good news is there is a company–Havas–who has been researching what makes a brand meaningful every year for the past 15 years. And this week Jim will talk with two leaders at Havas who oversee this annual research.

Jim's guests on The CMO Podcast are Mark Sinnock, the Global Chief Strategy, Data and Innovation Officer at the Havas Group, and Joanna Lawrence, the global chief strategy officer at the Havas Media Network. Havas is one of the oldest and largest global communications companies. Founded in 1835 in Paris by Charles Louis Havas, today the group does business in 100 plus countries, with roughly 23,000 people; annual revenues approach $3 billion Euros.

Each year since 2009 the Havas group has designed and fielded a massive research project called Meaningful Brands. The intent is to provide insights and guidance on how to build a brand that has deep meaning for its customers, thereby driving sustained growth and profitability. The scope is impressive: more than 1.5 million interviews, in 24 countries, with 41 categories and 2600 brands analyzed. Tune in as Jim chats with Mark and Joanna about learning from the latest Meaningful brands study.
