Discover the skills to become a fulfilled marketer.

In the age of the ‘great resignation’ and the ‘great migration’, there’s never been a better time to become a whole marketer and take complete ownership of your career.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What it means to be a whole marketer, including how to better understand yourself and others, and how to make intentional career and life choices and goals that align with your values.
• The required soft, leadership and technical skills to be an effective marketing leader.
• The importance of engaging and involving a wide range of stakeholders when developing your marketing strategy
• How to socialise your strategy to get stakeholders on board. 
• Abby shares some great tips for those of you who are uncomfortable with the politician parts of your role. 
• Why and how marketers should be taking ownership of the commercial agenda for your organisation.
• Why a long-term marketing strategy is still required in today’s rapidly changing world.
• The difference in company orientation from being product-oriented, to sales-oriented to production-focused – to the holy grail of being marketing-oriented.
