This year, we are thrilled to welcome another marketing leader Russ Klein, CEO of the American Marketing Association is joining us at Transformational CMO Assembly as our keynote speaker. In the run-up to the event, we sat down with the “flamethrower” himself and quizzed him a little about his career, what’s next for the marketing industry and what advice he would give to CMOs looking to capitalize on the ‘Digital Industrial Revolution’.

Here is a snippet from our interview with Russ:

In any company, the culture and leadership often makes or breaks digital transformation. Back in 2016, you spoke at the Leadership Summit, where you said “Positivity and optimism are the stuff of magic. It’s the magician’s elixir and the opening to possibility thinking which is the stuff of transformational creativity.” Can you tell us a little more about why these leadership qualities are so vital to a successful transformation?

RK: This answer could go on forever. I’m a believer in predictive language. That is, what you say and how you say it is predictive of outcomes. I’m not delusional about it, but I know that any transformation is going to hit low points when you simply must “believe to see.” Positivity isn’t just pixie dust…the science and empirical data on the power of positive thinking is abundant. If you can paint a co-created vision in which your team can see themselves playing an epic role…you have a chance.

Positivity is about being willing to think epic.
