[SBS 2026] Fireside Talk: 5 Strategic Lessons in Building Brands That Scale and Last

Strong brands are not built on logos, slogans, or marketing spend alone, they are built on clarity, simplicity, and culture. In this fireside talk, the speakers unpack five strategic lessons from global brand icons, exploring why purpose matters more than mission statements, why simplicity wins over complexity, and why brands that truly scale are lived internally before they are amplified externally. Speakers: Dominic Mason - Managing Director at Sedgwick Richardson SEA Jessie Nguyen - Brand Manager at Gradion Key takeaways: → A brand is far more than a logo. Iconic examples like Singapore Airlines and Tiffany show that enduring brands are built on experience, emotional meaning, and distinctive assets, not visual identity alone. → Purpose outperforms vision and mission statements. Scalable brands distill their reason for existence into a simple, meaningful idea that guides decision-making across the organization. → Simplicity is strategic. The strongest brands reduce complexity to a few powerful words, while overloading organizations with values, constructs, and statements weakens clarity and internal alignment. → Everything communicates. Brand is not confined to marketing, it is expressed through employee behavior, service quality, operational decisions, and leadership example. → Brands that scale are built from within. Culture, empowerment, and consistent internal behaviors, such as Ritz-Carlton’s $2,000 rule, create authenticity, resilience, and long-term brand equity that withstands external volatility. 一一一一一一一一一一 About us With over 23 years of experience and a global team of 300+ experts across 7 countries, Gradion delivers measurable technology solutions across E-commerce, Retail, Mobility, Travel & Logistics, and Intralogistics, all grounded in one belief: growth happens when great minds connect.
