The credibility skills marketers need, with Louise Thompson, Leadership Coach

Or listen and subscribe on

Getting the title is one thing. Getting taken seriously as a leader is another.

Louise Thompson knows that gap well. She spent years as a comms director before moving into coaching, and she’s worked with plenty of smart marketers who’ve found the step up tougher than expected.

We get into:

  • why outputs don’t cut it at senior level – it’s all about outcomes
  • the behind-the-scenes groundwork that makes meetings easier
  • how to stop micromanaging without losing standards
  • finding a leadership style that feels like you, not a copy-and-paste

If you’ve just stepped up to head-of or director, or want to position yourself as ready for the next big leap, there’s plenty here for you.
