The 12 Powers of a Marketing Leader

How to Succeed by Building Customer and Company Value

Thomas Barta, Patrick Barwise

McGraw-Hill Education, September 2016

What makes an effective and successful marketing leader? The authors of this groundbreaking book conducted a worldwide study with profiles of more than 58,000 business leaders—and discovered 12 essential traits that can make or break your success.

The 12 Powers of a Marketing Leader is the first and only leadership book for marketers based on anything like this level of research evidence.

Learn how to:

MOBILIZE YOUR BOSS:
Make an impact at the highest level and align marketing with the company’s priorities.

MOBILIZE YOUR COLLEAGUES:
Inspire and motivate your colleagues to act on your ideas.

MOBILIZE YOUR TEAM:
Build and hone a winning marketing team.

MOBILIZE YOURSELF:
Focus on goals that will benefit your customer, company, and long-term career.

Warning: This is not a marketing book. It’s a leadership book for marketers, using the latest research on what works—and what doesn’t—in marketing’s digital age. By zeroing in on the value creation zone (“V-Zone”)—the all-important overlap between your company’s and customers’ needs—you’ll be able to help the business win in the market—and achieve your career goals.
