Final due date of 12 August to be considered in Australia's premier list of modern marketing leaders
CMO is extending the submission deadline for this year’s CMO50 program to a final due date of Monday 12 August based on overwhelming demand.
Now in its fifth year, the CMO50 is Australia’s highly prestigious list of innovative and effective marketing leaders. Since its inauguration in 2015, the list has become a well-respected benchmark of excellence in marketing leadership, celebrating all the things that make modern CMOs successful and influential in their organisations.
The CMO50 isn’t just a stamp of recognition for the leader either; it’s a clear sign of the excellence exhibited by their marketing function. This accolade should therefore be seen as a reward not just for CMOs, but their entire teams.
Those wishing to be considered for the 2019 list MUST complete a submission in order to be in the running. You’ll find our questionnaire online and in downloadable form here.
The CMO50 is open to the top Australia-based marketer within an organisation with responsibility for the vision and strategy of the whole company marketing function. The ambition is to celebrate excellence through:
* Business contribution and innovation
* A customer engagement-led approach to marketing
* The application of data/technology in marketing strategy
* Empowered and strategic thinking
* An ability to effect change in the organisation
* Demonstration of marketing’s commercial effectiveness
* Team and people development
The due date for submissions has now been extended to a final deadline of Monday 12 August 2019. All submissions must be sent to CMO Publisher and Editor, Nadia Cameron: nadia_cameron@idg.com.au
Only one questionnaire is required for each individual candidate. Please note questionnaires are kept confidential between the CMO team and our CMO50 judging panel.
The 2019 CMO50 list will be first revealed at our exclusive CMO50 dinner in Sydney on Thursday 17 October 2019. Those who submit will automatically receive a complimentary invitation to this salubrious, invite-only event.
So there’s no time to waste – get those submissions completed and sent in now!
In this latest episode of our conversations over a cuppa with CMO, we catch up with the delightful Pip Arthur, Microsoft Australia's chief marketing officer and communications director, to talk about thinking differently, delivering on B2B connection in the crisis, brand purpose and marketing transformation.
The lessons emerging from a year like 2020 are what make the highlights, not necessarily what we gained. One of these is renewed emphasis on sustainability, and by this, I mean complete circular sustainability.
The past 12 months have been a confronting time for marketers, with each week seemingly bringing a new challenge. Some of the more notable impacts have been customer-centric, driven by shifting priorities, new consumption habits and expectation transfer.
ABM has been the buzzword in digital marketing for a while now, but I feel many companies are yet to really harness its power. The most important elements of ABM are to: Identify the right accounts; listen to these tracked accounts; and hyper-personalise your content to these accounts to truly engage them. It’s this third step where most companies struggle.
