What can the beautiful game teach us about the profession we’ve all dedicated our lives to?

Chief marketing officers and marketing leaders face unprecedented challenges in 2024.

Diminishing trust in traditional social media platforms and growing skepticism toward generative AI (GenAI) technologies are reshaping consumer interactions. These shifts pose significant hurdles for CMOs already grappling with the demand to achieve more with fewer resources.

At the same time, these challenges present unique opportunities. Marketers can leverage GenAI to boost efficiency and foster a culture of creativity, or they can stand out by deliberately rejecting tech trends in favor of more traditional approaches.

The Gartner 2024 Mainstream Marketing Predicts emphasize the need for agility and self-awareness in the rapidly evolving marketing landscape.Join this complimentary webinar as a panel of Gartner marketing experts explores what lies ahead for marketing in 2024 and beyond, and how marketing leaders can navigate the delicate balance between advancing technology and maintaining consumer trust.

Discussion Topics:

• Refocus customer acquisition and loyalty strategies to counter social media attrition
• Integrate GenAI technology into in-house creative processes to enhance efficiency and innovation
• Assess the impact and potential of AI-free, traditional marketing methods on brand differentiation and engagement

Panelists:

• Emily Weiss (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr PrincipalResearch
• Dan Gutter (LinkedIn profile)  Gartner  Sr Specialist, Research
• Suzanne Schwartz  (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Director Analyst
• Greg Carlucci (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Director Analyst
• Chris Ross  (LinkedIn profile) Gartner  VP Analyst

Learning objectives:

• Defining the features and the external and internal environmental factors of a complex and strategic project,
• Developing a systematic and formalized multi-criteria decision-making process based on strategic risk analysis in a complex project environment,
• Identifying and analyzing project risks throughout the project life-cycle in parallel with the project management

A complex project may have a very long and multiple phased life-cycle, a large number of stakeholders within a complex organizational plan, a complex resource management, technical complexities, contractual complexities and macro-environmental factors.

On the other hand, complex projects signify a strategic importance for the project stakeholders in terms of their business strategy, brand image, financial and economic opportunities.

Managing a complex and strategic project requires, in its life-cycle, a specific organization and a specific approach in order to reach the project objectives in terms of cost, time and project performance.

The complexity of a project leads to the existence of interdependent risks, hard to anticipate and keep under control. For complex and strategic projects, it is necessary to identify and assess all the potential risks and opportunities through the whole project life-cycle, and develop action plans to mitigate, eliminate or transfer negative risks.

However, in the early phases of a project, it is difficult to identify and assess project risks. While front end planning is important, not all events and scenarios can be foreseen when the project can take several years to complete and may involve many companies and stakeholders.

In this stage of the project, a strategic and environmental analysis is indispensable for identifying and analyzing the major risk factors for taking a strategic decision about the project. In this study, a formalized Multi-criteria decision making process is developed based on a strategic risk analysis in complex environment.

The external and internal environmental risk and opportunity factors are analyzed in a systematic approach in order to take a strategic decision at three key-steps of the project:

1. At a very early stage and at a strategic level, to consider the opportunity of affecting some resources to a given (possible) project,
2. Later, when they need to decide, after preliminary studies, if it will effectively consider the project and mobilize its engineers for detailed studies,
3. Before the contracting phase in order to develop risk allocation plan and negotiate it with the project customer.
