Getting the right marketing message out to a target demographic has taken on a newfound level of importance in the current economy. This has placed additional pressure on Chief Marketing Officers to perform and remain innovative, though the relative tenure of the job remains short.

It is against this backdrop that Argyle Executive Forum presents its 2009 CMO Leadership Forum, which will take place in Miami, bringing together the marketing leadership from approximately 75 public and private large-cap and mid-cap corporations, complementary areas of executive leadership, as well as select advisors.  The forum will focus on several areas including (but not limited to): staying relevant in a turbulent economy, globalizing marketing messages in a shrinking world, maximizing opportunities in a cluttered market space and marketing accountability.

Please note that the limited seating for members of the advisory community is offered first to those that are supporting the event as sponsors. Participation by partnership organizations (advisory firms, vendors, etc) is limited to clients of Argyle Executive Forum. Argyle meetings are by invitation only.

*Press policies for member meetings are set at the individual session level. Some sessions may be on the record, while others are off. Please consult the meeting agenda, which will indicate which sessions are off the record. To inquire about media presence, please click here.
