As CMOs look to define strategy, show the business value of marketing and implement new up-and-coming technologies into business practices, they're no longer working in a silo.

In the past, the CMO wasn’t always viewed in an equal playing field with the CEO, CFO and CIO, but marketers are gaining traction in the C-suite. They're increasingly seen as game changers...
