CMO INDUSTRY 4.0
THE SHIFT FROM MARKETING
ACTIVITY TO MARKET CREATION
In the Industry 4.0, marketing is undergoing a profound and lasting shift. The role of the CMO is shifted from roles creating and ensuring the execution of a company's marketing vision to positions with broader responsibilities including taking the reins of innovation and disruptive growth.
Therefore, the CMO needs to shift from the passive position (just finding the way to deploy successful marketing activities to sell products) to the proactive position (building a trusted brand in the context of trust crisis, and creating new markets to drive organization to success). The CMO needs to improve not only the techniques on marketing but also more scientific knowledge about market orientation, strategy, and marketing management.
