Companies that require a graphic designer, usually ask/expect that one of his qualities must be awareness of the logo trends.
How can the designer learn what the logo trends are and be prepared and educated over the latest logo trends?

Under Consideration | Brand New is a blog that I used to follow. They went to a subscription model awhile ago, and I sort of lost track of them...always meaning to go to the site and subscribe, but always forgetting. Thanks for the reminder. They are an EXCELLENT source, and you can even pay what you want to subscribe.
This is what I was going to suggest as well. They basically just post reviews of company logo/branding redesigns. Some of them are very thorough and involve changing the look and feel of everything in the company, others are just the logo.

They also have a yearly conference.

Logo Lounge also produce a yearly trend report that’s pretty good and free.


Awareness of logo trends could be as simple as once a month grab a coffee and just google “Logo Trends”. You’re find a load of recent articles from Adobe and other great sources.

Do your own market research. Behance, Dribbble, designboom, look up news articles of new logo unveiling... basically gather info anyway you can, compile it altogether. Summarize the findings in 3-5 key words with explanations and examples on a single slide. Show your stakeholders. Wala you just learned a semester of graphic design school.
