The evolution of the chief customer officer — and 3 reasons you don’t need one, yet | CMO News to Go | Scoop.it
The age of the customer has rightfully put the spotlight on the buyer experience—and ultimately the arrival of the chief customer officer. But here's why you don't need one for your company.
Jennifer Beever's insight:
The role of the Chief Customer Officer is still somewhat undefined; it's hard to find someone with the skill set (think Product Manager?); it;s sometimes a sign of bigger problems.

Jennifer Beever's insight:

Maybe this is what Tom Peters meant many years ago when he said that the new way of working is for people to come together on a project and do a great job, then disband and form other teams to work on the next job. It very much supports the outsource marketing model which provides extreme flexibility - in headcount and cost as well as talent.

Jennifer Beever's insight:

“In the past, marketers would make campaigns, they would put them in the world, and they would wait to see what happened,” Jones said in a video released on the brand's A Bullseye View website and YouTube channel. “In today’s world, it happens hourly. It happens daily.... ...So if we can create content and share content and allow our guests to speak on our behalf, that’s really beneficial for them to deepen their engagement and it helps us amplify our message as well.”

Infographic: How Both Presidential Candidates Grossly Outspent Their Predecessors

Infographic: How Both Presidential Candidates Grossly Outspent Their Predecessors | CMO News to Go | Scoop.it
AN ELECTION DAY INFOGRAPHIC TALLIES UP THE MONEY DRIVING BOTH CAMPAIGNS, ILLUSTRATING THE VAST DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN 2012 AND EVERY OTHER ELECTION YEAR.

 

Well, the day is finally here. Whether you voted early or are running to the polls today, it’s going to be a tough one to sit through. We all know infographics are a noted cure for anxiety (and a leading cause of distraction), so here’s one more 2012 election graphic to keep you busy until you can go home and park yourself in front of the TV.

 

This election cycle has been dominated by stories about money: the candidates’ own money. The candidates’ plans for America’s money. The money (or lack thereof) of their supporters. The exorbitant sums of money given by unseen interest groups. The exorbitant sums of money each campaign will have spent by the closing of polls today.

Jennifer Beever's insight:

How To Tell If You’re Creative (Hint: You Might Be A Bit Of A Jerk)

How To Tell If You’re Creative (Hint: You Might Be A Bit Of A Jerk) | CMO News to Go | Scoop.it

A new personality test determines the markers of a creative mind.


Via Tocquigny
Jennifer Beever's insight:

So it's true creatives are in a world of their own!

Tocquigny's curator insight, April 12, 5:14 PM

Forget Myers-Briggs. A study out of BI Norwegian Business School has determined the signposts of a "creative" personality. Conducted by Professor Øyvind L. Martinsen, the study posed 200 questions to 481 people. The subjects fell into three categories. One group of "baseline" subjects such as lecturers or managers, and two groups of people who are generally considered to be creative, such as students of advertising and performing artists. Martinsen says he found meaningful differences between the creative and noncreative groups.

There are seven elements of a creative personality, so if you’re thinking about quitting your job as a lawyer or stock analyst to go on tour with your band or finally write that novel, you might want to consider [this list].
