    2. The map of the course

    3. A dictionary for reading lectures from other fields as rebranding work

    4. Three questions to ask after every lecture

    5. A short self-diagnostic that shows which sections to watch first

Description

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

The name changes, the typeface changes, the promise on the homepage changes. What does not change is the thing a customer meets. Here are 344 tools to change that too: 210 ready-to-use templates, procedures, checklists, question lists and AI prompts, 101 models and methods, 28 services shown on screen and 5 working files.

Open a lecture, take the template, apply it to your own brand this week.

Read this first

Six of the 40 lessons are branding in the narrow sense: audit, positioning, identity, campaign. The other 34 are about the company behind the promise. If you are looking for forty lessons on logo redesign, this course is not that. It is deliberate: rebrands almost never fail at the logo.

How a rebrand actually fails

The same people, the same response times, the same conversation when a customer asks for a refund. Within a quarter the new promise works against you harder than the old one did, because now the gap between what you said and what happens is visible to everyone. A reposition is a claim about future behaviour. The only question that matters is whether the claim is covered.

What changes after this course

You measure what you are before you announce what you will be. You write the new position as a sentence you could defend to a customer. You change the behaviour that has to change: expected conduct, rituals, hiring, service standards, escalation. Then you launch, and you can see whether the perception moved.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe. I am also a founder and lead the strategy of my own academy.

At Wargaming I ran a deep audit of the employer value proposition and found a classic mistake: the company had grown, but its promise had not changed. It had been a startup with a promise about drive; now it was two thousand people and processes, and employees no longer recognised themselves in it. At the same company, people began to leave and leaders assumed the cause was pay, which meant about 10 million dollars a year in raises. I proposed to research it first. The study showed that the real problem was internal communication, not salaries.

How to use the course

  • 46 downloadable resources: lecture presentations and five working files
  • 344 tools across the lessons, including 28 services shown on screen

Where to start

An unaddressed gap between promise and delivery does not stay the same size: it widens with every new customer. The audit is a day's work and it shows how big the gap is. Enrol now and run it this week.
