Jaguar with Laura Ries and James Morris

About this episode

One of the most sensational rebrands of 2024 was Jaguar, the British luxury car brand that seemed to leave their legacy on the side of the road. While the uproar of negative reactions felt unanimous, a few brave souls dared to call it genius. In this episode we hear from brand positioning expert and author Laura Ries as well as technology journalist Dr. James Morris to get their opinion on the Jaguar rebrand.
