Summary: | Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) are part of corporate brand image and the indicator for organisational leadership and success [see 2, 3, 4 and 5]. This paper proposes that if CEOs are associated with corporate brand, they should project their images as leaders to stakeholders.

The archetypes had different labels subject to the situational contexts and respondents’ perceptions. These archetypes can be used as part of corporate brand image. |
