by Subhendu Mukherjee

Brand Purpose Marketing
by Shiv Sahgal - Marketing Director, Unilever Malaysia

The impact of our actions on our planet are far more visible and the link is very tangible. Consumers are getting a lot more demanding from all stakeholders in what should be their role in improving lives and making an impact. There is an increased social consciousness amongst stakeholders across the board and a creeping sense of urgency. All this has led an increased demand for authenticity by the consumers – from all the stakeholders.. be it the government, companies or even their friends and peers.
