I enjoy ads and commercials. The good ones stick with me. I’m impacted by their images, sounds and words. The best ones have a dramatic tagline or slogan – a succinct, repeatable core message about the product or service that conveys the essence of what the company wants you to believe and remember. They’re designed to motivate you to act.

Take BMW for example – “the ultimate driving machine.” Or, Disney’s “the happiest place on earth.” Inspiring messages that captivate imagination as they describe the special value, benefit or experience you’ll have. The same words, every time, repeated ad after ad, across all media platforms.

Leaders, you can use a tagline or slogan in your workplace to shape the way employees think and behave, to keep everyone’s focus aligned – all moving in the same direction around important initiatives.
