Each case study comprehensively reviews the changes in the company's corporate structure and the successes and failures of its marketing and branding strategies over time. A wide range of business sectors is covered, including food and drink, retail, apparel, electronics, aviation, cars and entertainment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf prime importance for corporate survival and growth in all sectors and countries is the crucial shift from owner\/founder-run companies to consolidated management-led corporations.
