The Death of the CMO and Directing Operations with a Cocktail Episode

Share the goodness!

This week in the marketing studio, Jeff Clark, our resident strategy advisor, and our host Ian Truscott chat about some recent articles on and research into the apparent death of the CMO and, if the CMO is not dying, then the much-discussed shorter tenure of marketing leaders compared to their peers. 

Ian then winds down the week with Robert Rose, Chief Troublemaker at The Content Advisory, in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar, who, over a fabulous cocktail, shares a thought about content operations and how we should take a leaf out of Hollywood’s book and hire a director.  

Enjoy!
