Graduate feedback
Onise Okriashvili
Sense of Branding
After the first meeting, I was already eagerly waiting for the next one. I found myself among people who were genuinely and thoughtfully interested in the subject they were studying. The lecturer shared his unique perspective on experiencing branding at an instinctual level, which was supported by numerous academic studies from psychology, sociology, and other related scientific fields. All four meetings offered a new perspective on developing skills to perceive or create a brand's spirit from scratch.

Sense of Branding
The lecturer's personality, his unique approaches, immediacy, directness, and teaching techniques (along with professionalism) took us on a journey through aspects of branding that we had no idea about before. Moreover, the most important part was the practical assignments, which gave us the opportunity to think independently, develop creativity, and make correct insights. Through this course, my ideas about branding seemed to come together and were given the most appropriate name.
Inga Gorgiladze
Sense of Branding
The program was very interesting for me - besides receiving crucial knowledge for my profession from the most experienced strategist in Georgia, the workshops left a significant impact on my consciousness about what and how I should change in my life to start thinking correctly and be able to set precise goals both professionally and in life. The most valuable thing I gained is that I learned what is incorrect, and I became confident in those opinions and thoughts that I had doubted before.

Sense of Branding completely changed the established paradigm. Only Ucha can teach you with a different perspective what you can't learn elsewhere.

Sense of Branding
The course gives you the opportunity to delve into the foundations on which different brands are built. Putting this knowledge into practice helps you to better understand the magical process of branding. This course changed a lot in my perception of branding.
Lika Rusadze
Sense of Branding
Until now, I didn't know much about branding theoretically - first of all, I chose Ucha as my first lecturer because I knew he would try from the beginning to show me the brand and its goals from a different perspective, pushing us to go deeper, to ask questions and not just give answers, which is much more interesting to me than just reciting memorized rules read from a book.
Levan Nadirashvili
Sense of Branding
Thanks to this crash course, my view of the brand and its perception has radically changed. The dynamics of the course don't allow you to relax and you immerse yourself in it from head to toe. Thanks to Ucha, thanks to Commschool!

"A person who intends to manage a brand must be radical, impatient, and a bit abnormal" - Ucha Urushadze, lecturer at SENSE OF BRANDING
Ucha Urushadze will lead the "Sense of Branding" crash course at Commschool. Ucha is a philosopher who creates brands, and he'll tell us more about the rest in the blog:"My areas of expertise are strategic branding and marketing communications strategy. The former involves creating marketing concepts for brands and developing their action plans, while the latter is the technology of reaching specific groups in society motivated by commercial interests," says Ucha. If you haven't been to Spotlight, I'd like to ask you an interesting question from Ucha's presentation - "Is honey a vegetable?". Sounds strange, doesn't it? According to Ucha, this is exactly how branding begins: "What we don't know is precisely what can make a great brand." ფოტო - რეზი ყენია Since 2014, Ucha has been leading strategies at HOLMES&WATSON, where he has implemented various successful projects such as TBC Bank's brand strategy and advertising campaigns "Hello" and "You", as well as TBC Insurance's campaign - "Mistakes Have Come". So, what is branding? Ucha explains: "Branding is the process of discovering what humanity is. A good brand is one that tries to penetrate my world - I should feel that the brand is trying to understand me." And who is a strategist? Ucha says: "Since more or less every person has the ability to imagine and communicate, people think that whatever they do or say will be acceptable and understandable to everyone. A strategist is a professional who perceives a specific action or statement through the eyes and ears of the audience. They determine what would be generally interesting, original, and relevant, not just what would suit a particular brand, for example." As we mentioned, Ucha has worked on numerous projects, of which he highlights a few: "The first most impressive project was creating the localization platform for Geocell's rebranding by Telia Sonera and inspiring the long-term communication activity associated with it. In fact, Geocell was the first daring brand to break our usual way of speaking. This was followed by the even bolder TBC, which paradigmatically changed the established culture of brand attitude towards people. It was also interesting to work with Elite Electronics and Nikora, although I think more could have been done with them. Formally, I'm proud that the brand concept of Silknet was created by me at the time. I can't help but mention the most interesting content-wise for me - Sulakauri Publishing House, for which, out of love, I'm ready to exchange experience for books." Ucha believes that within the crash course, he will focus on maximizing student boost in minimal time: "Since people in our country generally dislike reading and writing, considering this reality, I find it necessary to organize such a professional-educational event where they won't have to read anything and still gain an in-depth understanding of what a brand really is and what possibilities it has. Besides, they will be able to internalize what they've understood and ultimately develop, in the literal sense of the word, a sense of branding. As they say, someone will chew it for you, put it in your head, and you can use it wherever you like." According to Ucha, the main quality for developing in the branding field and successfully managing a brand is radicalism, and not just that: "For a person who intends to manage a brand, first of all, any tradition should be unacceptable. They should be radical, impatient, and a bit abnormal. These qualities can be acquired." Registration for the third intake of the Sense of Branding crash course has begun. The course includes four meetings, each lasting five hours. During these four meetings, Ucha will deeply discuss branding in four directions: the qualitative difference between brand and product/service/company, brand humanization, brand communication, and brand innovation. A general understanding of marketing basics is sufficient to study the course. https://youtu.be/kRW0EEwZjhgSo, if you're interested in Sense of Branding, keep in mind that places in the program are limited, and registration has already started.

News from the Sense of Branding Crash Course - Anano Tsitsvadze
My general impression of the Sense of Branding crash course is this - a transformation of vision that needs to be "managed." If you're interested in branding, then the Sense of Branding crash course is exactly what will give you the greatest experience and knowledge in this field. In this blog, I'll introduce you to Commschool graduate Anano Tsitsvadze, who shares her impressions about the course and the lecturer. Anano is the Marketing and Communications Manager at the Georgian-American University, with 8 years of experience in the marketing field. Her diverse vision in the field is shaped by her studies in a 4-year Liberal Arts program and working with interesting people. ანანო ქართულ-ამერიკული უნივერსიტეტის მარკეტინგისა და კომუნიკაციების მენეჯერია, რომელსაც მარკეტინგის სფეროში უკვე 8 წლიანი გამოცდილება აქვს. სფეროში მის მრავალფეროვან ხედვას კი Liberal Arts-ის 4 წლიან პროგრამაზე სწავლა და საინტერესო ადამინებთან მუშაობა განაპირობებს. "In my view, marketing goes beyond the standard 'buy-sell' cycle and turns this field into the best arena for creative burning." According to Anano, branding is part of the best arena for creative burning, without which marketing and communications are unimaginable. Therefore, each activity she has implemented throughout her profession was an echo of the brand's spirit, because brand perception is what gives birth to communication strategy. "I believe that each person is unique, so a brand should be unique too. If this is not the case, I'll consider that I'm simply not working correctly." For Anano, the course process was a new and pleasant challenge, where after 20 minutes of research with industry professionals, you have to present a topic presentation, which should be done quite concisely. However, with the help of the lecturer and stepping into his world, the course exceeded all of Anano's expectations and, according to her, set a standard for all courses and lecturers. "I chose the course quite easily because it has no alternative in Georgia, and in my opinion, Ucha Urushadze is also unrivaled. His range of thinking is so vast that it's impossible to remain the same after professional interaction with him." The course not only added to Anano's knowledge but also to her confidence. She is sure that with the help of the knowledge and visions shared by the lecturer, she will definitely discover something new and valuable in the near future, because, as she says: "Ucha's vision resembles the art of branding, it has many layers, and the further you go, the more layers you encounter for interpretation, which ultimately leads you to an important, personal conclusion." The most important thing she learned from the course is that: "The brand I'm working on now and all the brands that will be added to my professional portfolio in the future are people to me. I couldn't have learned anything more valuable anywhere else from anyone." Anano advises everyone who has any type of connection with the marketing and communications field to take advantage of the opportunity to take the Sense of Branding course. For those who make the strategic decision to take the course, she advises forgetting about their regalia, who they are, and what they've done in marketing so far during the lectures. They should simply be students, maximally open to hearing, perceiving, and understanding unconventional visions, ideas, and interpretations. Because such an approach will only double the effect of the course. "Briefly, sharply, and intelligently. If you can't do it, try again, Ucha will help you, just ask for help. In the end, you must succeed, you shouldn't finish the course without thinking 'That's it!' at least once." So, if you want to experience the creative burning of branding and transform your own visions in the marketing field, join us! Get "managed" by Sense of Branding, whose course we're starting on July 1-2! Learn More
Commschool Starts Admissions for Crash Course
Commschool is launching new Crash Courses!What is a Crash Course? Through Crash Courses, students are maximally boosted using an intensive learning method that is entirely practice-based.Sense of Branding is the first Crash Course at Commschool, which will be led by strategic branding specialist Ucha Urushadze - a philosopher who creates brands. Since 2014, Ucha has been leading strategies at HOLMES&WATSON, and through him, numerous influential projects have been created, such as TBC Bank's brand strategy and communication campaigns - "Hello" and "You".Within the program, Ucha will review the concept of branding in detail, explaining what it encompasses in content: "Branding is the process of discovering what humanity is," says Ucha. For Ucha, a brand and its product can be viewed as a human face, whose attractiveness is, of course, maintained by constant care."During the Crash Course, Ucha will also talk about brand humanization: "A good brand is one that penetrates people's inner world and understands their desires. At this time, we figure out how to give human characteristics to a reality that is not human, i.e., brand humanization, which is putting a soul into the product." As Ucha says, during the Crash Course, he will consider the brand in 4 directions: "During these four days, I want us to go through the north, south, east, and west of the brand, like the 4 directions of the world."Accordingly, Ucha will be guided by a kind of principle of four: the course includes a total of four meetings, each meeting will be four hours long, and in these meetings, using Ucha's approach, four directions of the brand will be discussed.Thus, as a result of completing the Crash Course, students will look at professional standards in a new way and develop appropriate skills.
