Course Description

Social impact brands are in touch with the human experience and transcend design, logo, taglines—and often even organizational boundaries through the structure of campaigns, movements, and initiatives that are not tethered to one system. In some cases, partners are required to transcend their own identities for a common purpose and the greater good. Leaders and other influencers are part of this brand ecosystem. Alignment is critical so that brand purpose as well as individual purpose are consistent making brand building everyone’s job—even if it is not your direct responsibility. The Georgetown University Certificate in Social Impact Branding teaches you how to map and activate this eco-system to build a brand strategy through empathy, emotion, and engagement.
