Listening to couple of podcast channels has been my morning routine on way to work.Building Better CMOs is one of them. Greg Stuart is simply awesome, the way he drives any conversation, the way he modulates his voice (goes low to high so seamlessly in certain moments that need that) , the way he brings in that personal touch is all 100% worth. In addition the kind of leaders he brings in ooze brilliance and inspiration. Greg - I listened to 2 of your podcasts today, so the next post coming up soon. (Ofcourse I took notes!) This one in particular that I listened to today morning is with the high energy Michelle Crossan-Matos . Not a moment to be missed in this conversation. What clarity of thought ! Some of the habits that Michelle shared, I follow as well- -Early morning wake up time -Reading about Leadership -Going for a power walk (I do a power run) -Taking notes on her phone, journaling -Basically preparing your brain for the day There are so many highlights in this conversation, one of the things I lovewhen she says CMOs need to be more of center brain than left or right. Then creating your own framework is important as you move in your career journey . I love her perspective that ----if one got to teach 5 people tomorrow on something, what helps is a framework that is own. I get the essence of it and hence I always accentuate the importance of getting out of your laptop for few moments each day and whiteboarding. I have a big white board in my home study where I keep writing/doodling depicting what's on my mind and tell you what - it is empowering ! Marissa is also the most vocal person in her boardroom and thats such a great sign of a great leader. And yes, she also calls herself the luckiest #CMO in the entire world......because....because her CEO is a former CMO. (All CMOs will relate of this) Another highlight from Marissa - Don't walk away from brand building. And also, if you get an opportunity to work in the 'retail' category ever, don't miss it (a lot of good reasons) PS: I gotta say with 3 eyeliners and 3 mascaras bringing in dimension to your eyes (the essence of it is linked to one's career journey as well!) So, I urge leaders to take out 32 mins and listen in to this! Building Better CMOs Podcast #Podcast #CSuite #Leadership #CMO Ammita Mistry Rudrashish Nag Moneka Khurana Lloyd Pereira
