Perception management is often seen as branding, PR, or executive polish. But in reality, it’s a direct performance driver—and a strategic business lever that most companies underestimate.
In this episode of the Revolving Change Podcast, Jorge Loebl and Joanna Edera dig into the corporate-level impact of perception management, beyond the personal or public-facing image. From CEO behavior to frontline service to unconscious customer feelings, they explore the subtle but powerful forces that shape trust, loyalty, and brand resilience.
Key Insight: Customers don’t just remember what you did—they remember how you made them feel. That feeling becomes their perception, and their perception becomes your bottom line.
This episode explores:
- Why companies fail when they treat perception as a marketing issue, not a leadership strategy
- The impact of CEO behavior and visibility on brand equity and public trust
- Real-world examples of perception wins and failures—from Apple to airlines to fashion brands
- How to measure, coordinate, and align perception across teams, roles, and customer touchpoints

This episode unpacks the practical realities of perception: how it’s formed, how it spreads, and how companies can train for it rather than reacting after the fact.
Final Thought: Customers Feel Before They Decide
Perception isn’t just a surface-level impression—it’s an emotional filter. It forms through small actions, casual interactions, and moments of truth across your organization.
You can’t control how every customer feels.
But you can build systems that consistently generate the perceptions you want—through clarity, alignment, and strategic leadership behavior.

If you’re not managing perception intentionally, you’re letting emotion, inconsistency, or one poor interaction define your brand.
