Drawing on nearly three decades of experience leading global marketing, customer experience, and digital transformation initiatives, Lynn explains why marketing leaders must move beyond the outdated distinction between brand and performance marketing. Instead, she argues that all marketing should be accountable to business outcomes, supported by organizations that are culturally and operationally prepared to embrace change.
