Breakfast Workshop: The New Rules of Engagement

From the break room to the board room, marketers understand that we now work in an unfamiliar environment. Employees think differently about their jobs and the companies for which they work. Marketing has to prove its credibility within our own organizations. And while competitors have cut budgets, we understand that we have to stay entrenched with our customers.

This workshop, limited to just 25 corporate participants, provides an opportunity to hear three top Chief Marketing Officers from Fortune 500 companies talk about the details of how they engage employees, other areas of the company and customers. In just two hours, you’ll hear from executive leaders from Motorola, JPMorgan Chase and Avnet about what works, what doesn’t and why. Plus, you’ll build a network of corporate peers to bounce ideas off of long after the workshop is over.

Now’s the time to build energy from the inside out. Studies prove that employees who feel engaged are more creative, productive and effective. That’s the first step toward proving marketing’s merit and building influence within your own company. With that, you’re in line to deliver what matters most to your customers in terms of both products and top-level service.

Register today and learn:

  • Proven techniques to build employee morale and ensure that top employees remain with your company long after the economy recovers
  • Why everyone within the organization needs to know about marketing’s success
  • How to build customer engagement so they stay with you for decades, not years

Who should attend:

  • Chief Marketing and Communications Officers
  • Vice Presidents
  • Directors
  • Corporate marketers responsible for strategic direction, marketing ROI and budgeting for the company’s marketing initiatives

*Note, participation restricted to currently employed corporate marketers (i.e. client-side) only.
