Reviews

Employer Brand Management is a great read for any business looking to attract (and more importantly keep) the cream of the employment crop. (Entrepreneur Middle East, January 2015) "Mr Mosley's book is thought-provoking, insightful, enjoyable and quirky...a must-read for business leaders" (Financial Adviser, January 2015) If, like me, you re exploring the subject of brand management with an element of scepticism, you ll finish the book with a greater sense of respect and seriousness for the subject. (B2B Marketing, January 2015) Every chapter is loaded with understanding, know-how and evidence. It has been produced with a level of social scientific rigour that many texts either lack or simply ignore. (Employer Brand News, January 2015)
