Growing Your Career & Your Team

How to Leverage Your Marketing Skills to Become a Leader in Your Firm

But how do you grow your career at an A/E/C firm that doesn't have a specific career path for marketing professionals? How do you increase your value to your firm while maintaining your day-to-day responsibilities? How do you become a leader when you're a marketing team of one? This presentation will discuss practical ways for marketers to grow as leaders in their firms through simple, real-world strategies that work.
