- Use `object-contain` to maintain aspect ratio
- The logo should appear to the left of the application title
- Do not stretch or distort the logo

### Implementation
```html
<img src="/static/Schamann.png" alt="Corporate Logo" class="h-10 w-auto object-contain" style="max-height: 40px; height: 40px !important;">
```

<!-- Header background -->
<header class="bg-cobalt-600 text-white shadow-lg">

## Tailwind CSS Configuration

The corporate colors are configured in the Tailwind CSS configuration within the base template:

```javascript
tailwind.config = {
    theme: {
        extend: {
            colors: {
                cobalt: {
                    50: '#f0f5ff',
                    100: '#e0eaff',
                    // ... all shades
                    500: '#1338BE',
                    // ...
                },
                tiger: {
                    50: '#fff8f0',
                    // ... all shades
                    500: '#FC6A03',
                    // ...
                },
                emerald: {
                    50: '#f0fdf4',
