AbstractThere is a strong link between the growth of market share and the profitability of a company with the power of its brands. Like other well-known carriers in the region or in the world, when the old identity is not suitable with the current status of the company anymore, changing in to a new identity should be implemented as soon as possible. More often than not, the Vietnamese companies seem to neglect the issue of branding. This study analyzes the importance of brands and the process of branding management. To illustrate the corporate identity building issues and positioning with a new identity in the airline market, this study examines the case study of Vietnam Airlines Corporation. Interviews with managers and customer survey are carried out to investigate the competitors' reaction and customer's perceptions toward the new identity. At the end, some recommendations are proposed for Vietnam Airlines to manage its new brand successfully and for other companies that want to change into a new corporate identity.
