“Everyone wants flexibility, agility, and impactful results at speed.” Katrina Klier found herself saying to a CEO recently. The CEO agreed. What we hear most often from CEOs is: 📩 We need leads. 💰 We need sales conversions. 📈 We need profitable growth. 🛫 We need scale. 🏃♀️ We need to move fast. ⛹♂️ We need to be agile and resilient. Yes, your company will likely need all these things and more if you're a CEO. And you may rightly be leaning on your head of marketing to help do all these things. If your company is evolving and growing quickly, what you need from your CMO or head of marketing will change quickly, too. Consider a Fractional CMO to help you quickly navigate changing business tides and build a sustainable growth engine. A Fractional CMO can serve as a strategic bridge to further develop your marketing team or can help you build the foundation you need for your business strategy.

We do a lot of work with clients to shift them from motion to action. Growth strategies. Acquisition Integrations. Building a GTM foundation. And so much more. Planning is important. Results only come from action. #growth #CEO

🤔 Motion versus Action. 🔎 They sound similar, but in reality, one is preparation (motion), and the other is outcomes (action). ⏸ I'm a fan of reflection from time to time. And although reflection is motion, I've found it helps me better prioritize my actions and get to the outcomes I want faster. ✅ I hope you enjoy this short article, and if you do, please subscribe and share it with others who may find it helpful. What do you think about motion and action in your career and business? #leadership #career #CMO #CEO
Are You In Motion or Taking Action? The Difference Impacts Your Success.

What's the difference between content marketing and thought leadership? ✅ Content marketing communicates information that may be new or that you want to reinforce to your audience. 🏆 Thought leadership content helps people think in new ways by leveraging emerging trends, evolving information, and creating a relatability point in common knowledge. Many brands forget this distinction. Getting thought leadership right will build your brand, fill (and convert) your funnel, and help you keep your customers.

PwC notes that 'Inorganic growth is required to overcome anemic organic growth.' Macroeconomics, political uncertainty, and fluid monetary policies are taking a toll on organic growth leading many CEOs to turn to acquisitions to boost revenues. EY-Parthenon together with the EY CEO Outlook Survey states "CEOs are looking at deal-making activity as a key lever to address their near-term priorities, with the top deal driver being the acquisition of technology, new production capabilities or innovative startups. They are also looking at their current portfolio of assets and operations and considering what will help their longer ambitions. The spike in intentions to divest assets over the next 12 months, which is broadly based across geographies and sectors, highlights how far CEOs are along their path to future-proofing for a different environment." In their 2024 M&A Trends Survey: Mind the Gap, Deloitte found that 79% of corporate leaders and 86% of private equity leaders expect an increase in deal volume during 2024. What does this mean if you're a CMO? It means the probability that you will do an acquisition integration soon is very high. Your job is to drive growth and acquisitions integrations, when done well, can drive substantial top-line growth and profitability too. ❓ Do you know how to really accelerate value during an acquisition integration? ❓ Do you know the steps to take and what the make or break decisions are? ⭐ I've done hundreds of acquisition integrations (yes it's true!). From this experience, I've created a playbook for CMOs to create success with customers, accelerate value for investors, and propel their careers forward. 💰 Read the 10 steps for success in the CMOs Checklist for Acquisition Integration Success. And add your own tips for success in the comments. #CEO #CMO #boardsofdirectors https://lnkd.in/er3GhetG

We've seen both the quality of #leadership and the adaptability of leaders to evolve their style as critical success elements for many of our clients. Great article from Katrina Klier on authenticity in leadership. #CEO
CEO | GTM Leader | CMO | Former Accenture, Microsoft, HP | Board Director | NACD.DC Directorship Certified | Private Directors Association
Being authentic is crucial for successful #leadership. Authentic leaders embrace their true selves, flaws and all, fostering open communication and mutual respect. By staying true to who they are, they create a culture of connection with others and genuine feedback on performance. Authenticity not only boosts likability but also enhances self-awareness. To be both authentic and likeable, prioritize staying true to yourself and being mindful of how your actions affect others. #Authenticity #LeadershipSkills
Authenticity is the Backbone of Effective Leadership

According to this year’s Edelman-LinkedIn #B2B Thought Leadership Impact 2024 Report, 73% of decision makers believe that an organization’s thought leadership #content is more reliable than its #marketing materials when it comes to assessing its capabilities and competencies. Businesses that establish themselves as thought leaders can gain a competitive edge and become leaders in their respective industries.
