Kia Motors Australia has confirmed a new general manager of marketing and promoted its former marketing leader to a fresh position on the local executive team.
Dean Norbiato joins the Kia group as general manager of marketing from Bastion EBA, where he spent the past four years as a group account director working with the automotive manufacturer. Prior to this, he was partnerships manager for Swisse Wellness, and also formerly held marketing roles with Swimming Australia.
Norbiato’s appointment comes as former GM of marketing, Manuel Tyras, steps up to take control of the network development department, a key role in growing the Australian business. Tyras initially joined Kia as a brand manager in 2014 before being appointed GM of marketing less than a year later. His resume includes marketing stints with Citroen and Hyundai locally.
In a statement, Kia Motors Australia COO, Damien Meredith, said there are always benefits to a business having a “fresh pair of eyes”.
“In this instance, we are able to have some fresh ideas in two key departments without sacrificing any experience,” he said.
“Manual clearly understands Kia’s core business requirements and will bring a focused view of what is required in the network development sphere, while Dean has previously worked with us from his previous position at Bastion and brings a fresh view on key areas.”

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it’s the next generation of athletes are standing by what they believe in – and they won’t let their values be superseded by money.
