Learning Objectives
To gain an understanding of the future direction of marketing by reviewing and building on past and current established marketing practices.
Program content
Naras uses exhaustive research from his book titled, High Performance Marketing: Bringing Method to the Madness of Marketing, to present points toward the future of marketing. He examines marketing past and present to demand a more responsible, respectable and successful future. Far from dry academia, it is part marketing call-to-arms, part magnifying glass aimed at marketing nooks and crevices often hidden in shadow. Naras offers real world, candid and often entertaining case studies and analogies to reveal both simple and complicated truths regarding the complicated relationship between marketing “departments” and “the rest of the company,” smashing stereotypes by communicating revealing thoughts from prominent executives in varied companies.
