Image/impression management takes place every day at the individual level. Cities similarly manage their images by creating, implementing, and evaluating strategic place-branding strategies. For public administration, however, which has neglected this subject, there is a risk that place branding may become collateral damage. The theoretical understanding developed in this article extends Goffman's theater metaphor to a view of place branding based on organization identity. The use of a trusted theory to give place-branding scholarship additional footing will enable public administration practitioners to better utilize the underlying principles of image management when crafting place-branding processes
