Not Just for Christmas

Advent Calendar Jonathan Schroeder

"There are many ways to have an ethical, green, or sustainable Christmas. If there was one thing you would want people to do every day as well, what would it be?"

Professor Jonathan Schroeder's research at the University of Exeter’s Business School focuses on the relationship between image and identity, on how visual communication creates value, and on how we understand the cultural aspects of brands, consumption, and communication. He is the author of Visual Consumption and Brand Culture and is the recipient of a 5-year research grant ‘Brands, Companies and Consumers: A Dynamic Perspective’ from the Jan Wallanders and Tom Hedelius Foundation. He was formerly Professor and Director of Marketing in the Department of Industrial Economics and Management at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, Sweden.

Try not to rush, get irritated, or annoyed at the people you love. Rethink Christmas consumption! Maybe buy fewer gifts for the holidays, and give more of your self - with phone calls or visits, not just emails and cards. Make someone a meal, or a cup of tea, help them with some vexing task – maybe their computer needs updating, or heavy boxes needs carting – or just spend time with them."
