How To Maximize The Partnership With Your CMO And Accelerate Revenue with Karen Steele

The relationship you build with a Go-To-Market leader is one of the most important components of an Operations role. The data you present, the way you frame your position, and the empathy you bring to your interactions are all foundational to building a strong partnership with any team. Today, we’re going inside the relationship between Ops and one of the most important C-level leaders in hypergrowth: the CMO. Our guest is former LeanData CMO Karen Steele, and she's the perfect person to give us the perspective from the CMO's side of the relationship. A 30-year Marketing veteran, Karen got her professional start at Apple and has since led Marketing at B2B organizations like Informatica, Xactly, VM Ware, Marketo, and most recently, LeanData. In our conversation, Karen is going to take us through the evolution she’s seen in the role of Operations, the best way to communicate with a CMO like her, and what it took to build highly-engaged communities for Operators like Marketing Nation at Marketo and OpsStars at Lean Data.
