The role of a CMO has changed |
|
73% of CMO’s own Profit and Loss Statements. Which means, they’re being held accountable for driving growth now more than ever. Alicia Hatch, Chief Marketing Officer of Deloitte Digital, is speaking up: “We need to translate the language of marketing to the language of business. Our KPI’s are in our own language, and CFO’s don’t understand. It’s like Russian to Mandarin speakers.” |

Netflix producer, Kenya Barris, Wieden+Kennedy CCO, Colleen DeCourcy, and TBWA CEO, Troy Ruhanen, discuss activism in advertising. Brands don’t need a purpose, they need a conscience. To be an activist you must get uncomfortable. You must speak truth to power, even if that power is your own system. |
