Course overview
What Is Leadership in Marketing?
Marketing leadership is about deciding where marketing should go and leading the team that gets it there. The course helps marketers step up from managing activity to shaping strategy: reading customers and markets, positioning the brand, planning and budgeting, directing creative work, collaborating with other functions and tracking results so choices are backed by evidence.
Interactive workshops, real case studies and collaborative projects let participants position a brand, draft briefs and analyse campaign results for the markets marketers in Belarus compete in.
Experienced marketers and aspiring marketing leaders from organisations in Belarus learn to join strategic marketing principles to sound leadership, so they plan with purpose, build strong brands, lead teams to campaigns that connect with customers and exchange ideas with peers facing the same challenges.
