He replaces Xander Bird, who has returned to the brand consultancy group's London office
Former Australian Marketing Institute (AMI) chief executive, Mark Crowe, has become the new head of Brand Finance Australia.
Crowe left the AMI in March after more than 10 years in the role. His resume includes senior management and board director positions across the professional services, education, food, hospital and sporting industries.
During his time with AMI, Crowe also contributed to several publications including the association’s The Role of Marketing in the Boardroom and What Value Marketing. He remains a fellow of the AMI.
Crowe assumed the role at Brand Finance, a brand consultancy, this month, replacing former local chief, Xander Bird, who has returned to Brand Finance's London office. He told CMO he had been consulting with the group for several months and looks forward to contributing to Brand Finance’s brand value league tables and reports as its new permanent chief.

“I am excited about the opportunity to work with leading brands on articulating and building value.”
The AMI has not yet confirmed its new CEO.

While approaching a customer in a shop and asking what you can help them with is Retail 101, how many of us actually enjoy being approached? Generally, you have to give the forced, fake smile and say, “Just browsing, thanks,” while screaming on the inside, “just leave me alone!” Maybe it’s just me?
Not a day passes by in the life of business executives where digital innovation or the prospect of disruption is not front of mind. This in turn, drives an unrelenting flow of questioning, discussion and strategy papers.
Unless you’ve been marketing under a rock, you’ll probably have questioned whether your media agencies are offering you transparency.
In Episode 10 of this new podcast series, BrandHook MD, Pip Stocks, talks with Country Road GM of brand and customer experience, Col Kennedy, about how brands enabling teams to support the customer no matter what they want to achieve is vital to the engagement equation.
