In this paper the view is explored that corporate identity consists of both visual and behavioural cues. Most corporations strive towards a positive corporate image. This can be attained only by taking into account also such aspects as customer service and employee behaviour, and not just creating attractive buildings, uniforms, logos and slogans. An analysis of selected literature and the results of four independent studies are reported to support the proposal of a Corporate Image Model that needs further research and refinement.1627635 bytesapplication/pdfenFaculty of Economic and Management Sciences, University of PretoriaVisual cuesModellingMarketing assetsLiteratureEmployee behaviourCustomer servicesCorporate personalityCorporate logosCorporate imagesCorporate Image ModelCorporate identityBehavioural cuesCommunicationBusinessCorporate imageArticle
