Core Competencies to Earn a Seat at the Table

In my last blog, I suggested that you must EARN your seat.  You must become a valued contributor to the overall discussion – one that lends both knowledge and insight to the conversation in a way that helps the C-Suite make the hard decisions. 

To do this, you need to understand how senior management thinks about company performance; know which specific results drive their success and thus their motivation; and tailor reporting and communications to reflect marketing’s true contributions and earn a “seat at the table.”

My blog readers will acquire a foundational understanding of:

       How business leaders think strategically
       “Red flags” that guide decision making
       The critical role of marketing/advertising in business success
       How to create and prioritize Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are relevant to top executives
       How to determine Return on Investment and Return on Objectives, and the difference between them
       Marketing’s role in delivering Shareholder Value


We will accomplish this through a logical progression of the above core competencies.
