CMO reveals our first speakers and plans for the third-annual conference dedicated to building modern marketing leadership excellence
CMO is delighted to confirm our CMO Momentum conference focused on inspired and sustainable marketing and customer leadership, is returning to the ICC in Sydney on 8 August!
CMO Momentum is a one-day conference giving marketing and customer leaders the opportunity to gain and share insight on what it takes to lead and sustain the modern marketing function. Now in its third year, this full-day event deep dives into customer-led and inspired marketing leadership via a host of international and Australian marketing, and business leadership experts, innovative thought leaders and more.
This year’s fabulous keynote speaker is T2 International’s global CEO, Nicole Sparshott, who will share her journey from CMO to CEO and lessons in leadership. We also have Campbell Arnott’s marketing chief, David McNeil, and Optus’ Ben White, sharing how each iconic Australian brand has been able to win brand advantage in brand crisis. Plus we’ll have a panel of former CMOs who’ve risen to CEO and board director level reveal how they see marketers taking charge of the boardroom.
There’s also a stellar line-up of marketers from SBS, Thankyou and Siteminder this year, who’ll debate brand purpose; plus futurologist and Youthquake 4.0 author, Rocky Scopelliti, who’ll share how your brand can win over the next generation in the 4th industrial age. And more speakers to be announced soon!
What’s more, CMO’s unique executive networking tables are back in 2019, giving our marketing leadership attendees the opportunity to truly interact with their peers on the subjects that matter most.

Flash back to the classic film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Television-obsessed Mike insists on becoming the first person to be ‘sent by Wonkavision’, dematerialising on one end, pixel by pixel, and materialising in another space. His cinematic dreams are realised thanks to rash decisions as he is shrunken down to fit the digital universe, followed by a trip to the taffy puller to return to normal size.
Why is it there is no shortage of leadership development materials, yet outstanding leadership is so rare? Despite having access to so many leadership principles, tools, systems and processes, why is it so hard to develop and improve as a leader?
As a nation united by sport, brands are beginning to learn money alone won’t talk without aligned values and action. If recent events with major leagues and their players have shown us anything, it’s the next generation of athletes are standing by what they believe in – and they won’t let their values be superseded by money.
