SUMMARY
This is the story of how McDonald’s turned around its brand and business fortunes, in the face of a global pandemic and 6 weeks of complete business closure.
This is also the story of how we did this by bravely looking beyond short-term survival, to instead focus on growing the long-term health of the brand.
But most of all, this is the story of how McDonald’s stole a march on the category and established a new all-time high market share, by genuinely listening to what its customers were going through and then answering with the behaviour of a true leader.
