Do you want to become a leader of change?

If you are an experienced marketer working at a strategic or management level and want to take your career to the next level, the new CIM Marketing Leadership Programme could be the right choice for you.

This programme has been developed to respond to both industry and individual needs within the marketing profession. Extensive global, employer-led research has been undertaken across a range of sectors and organisational sizes, to identify the skills and competencies required to fully develop a marketing professional into an advocate for leading change.

It will enable you to become integral in identifying the key influences – both external and internal – that are likely to become future drivers of an organisation. Draw on insight, apply strategic thinking and match them with organisational resources to support and deliver on business goals.
