ABOUT THIS EPISODE
There is no denying that brands wield enormous influence and power, and they can use it to drive social change through an inclusive and rigorous marketing strategy. How to create and execute such a strategy for the greater good is the focus on the new book Cultural Intelligence for Marketers: Building an Inclusive Marketing Strategy.
Written by Dr. Anastasia Kārkliņa Gabriel, a senior insights lead at Reddit who specializes in progressing inclusivity within marketing, media, and tech, the book provides a framework for embedding equity and inclusion into every aspect of marketing. In addition to insights from former marketing leaders, the book draws on case studies from purpose-driven brands and Dr. Gabriel’s own expertise as a cultural theorist and brand strategist to help organizations drive the cultural conversation and transform society for the better.
In this episode of Beyond Profit, a podcast of the ANA Center for Brand Purpose, Dr. Gabriel, who has consulted for many of the world’s top brands and agencies, joins host Ken Beaulieu to discuss her book at length and what marketers can learn from it.
