Section I offers a window into a number of communications challenges faced by brands encountered in the early part of the author's career inside advertising firms assigned to some of world's best known brands. The learning gained from such a span of advertising, marketing and branding exposure is shared as a way to put some of the discussion in that chapter into a context.
Section II focuses on what Morgan calls the "Great Man" but more importantly the larger view of how marketing communications fits into the scheme of things.
