Death of marketing chief role is grossly exaggerated
Every once in a while, the debate around the apparent demise of the role of the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) bubbles to the surface.
AANA CEO Josh Faulks in his latest column for The Australian explores why we need to move on from this topic. He also argues the case for marketing chiefs to continue to have a seat at the top table, and the need for CMOs and their c-suite counterparts to find a common language.
