Networking breakfast – Friday 15 September, The Delaunay, London
At our latest networking breakfast, which took place at The Delaunay, London, on Friday 15 September, we met interim and permanent senior marketing and digital/tech leaders at Chief-of level. It was a dynamic group and together we discussed the level of confidence in the market, which sectors are seeing growth, how to position marketing as a value-add function for organisations, and the key priorities for Chief Marketing and Digital/Tech leaders in 2024. It was an honest, positive, and inspiring discussion.
We also often hear book recommendations at our events and, this time, the recommended title was Exponential Organizations 2.0: The New Playbook for 10x Growth and Impact by Salim Ismail, Peter H. Diamandis, MD, and Michael S. Malone. Exponential Organisations 2.0, 'outlines the 11 ExO Attributes—the shared DNA of the most dynamic and forward-thinking organizations in the world today—providing a comprehensive guide and the critical tools required to transform your business into an exponential powerhouse.'
The event was a brilliant way to start the day with lively and humorous conversation – we all left feeling inspired, and confident about the months ahead.
Some kind words from our guests include:
'I just wanted to say thank you for a great event today. What a great group of people you brought together, and your kick-off opened up to a fantastic conversation. I really enjoyed it.’
