NEW YORK, Oct. 1, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As the global trade group architecting the future of marketing, today the MMA announced the appointment of new marketing industry leaders, including the CMOs of American Family Insurance, General Mills, General Motors, GlaxoSmithKline, Hershey, Hertz, hims & hers, Hyundai, Pepsi, Stitch Fix, Visa, and Walmart to its Global Board of Directors. The appointments cap the non-profit MMA's five-year transformation into the leading global think tank, community and advocate for the advancement of marketing - the only marketing industry association to bring together senior leaders from all aspects of the industry.

The MMA has spent over $6 million in just the last few years to better understand the science of marketing and to define modern marketing as well as create brand new knowledge for pioneering marketers to accelerate their innovation and build enduring business growth. This focus is on helping MMA members become even more effective modern marketers.

“MMA gives us a level of insight, knowledge and industry-wide collaboration we don’t get anywhere else – that's why so many top marketers are joining the board.” Karin Timpone, MMA Global Chair and Global Marketing Officer, Marriott International.

"MMA gives us a level of insight, knowledge and industry-wide collaboration we don't get anywhere else – that's why so many top marketers are joining the board," said Karin Timpone, MMA Global Chair and Global Marketing Officer, Marriott International. "By bringing this group together, we accelerate innovation in the marketing industry, ultimately leading to business growth and stronger customer engagement."

Over the past three years, MMA has demonstrated this leadership on critical industry issues with the launch of the Marketing Attribution Think Tank (MATT) to support next- generation measurement as well as a Marketing Org Structure Think Tank (MOSTT) to re-envision the modern marketing organization. In addition, MMA has challenged the notion of time as an audience benchmark through the first neuroscience study of how the brain reacts to advertising in mobile and desktop environments; produces more than 20 marketer conferences annually around the world including the globally recognized SMARTES Awards; developed the first Business Impact Index which ranks companies driving the highest level of business impact through their marketing campaigns; and led initiatives to counter marketing fraud (Future of Mobile Fraud) and development of leading thinking around Brand Safety (SAVE).

As a Board, the CMOs work with the senior most counterparts from the largest and most innovative marketing technology and media companies that are collectively redefining how advertising is created, delivered and measured.

"We now have over two-dozen of the world's pioneering marketers along with martech and adtech leaders on the MMA Global Board who are collaboratively working to change media and marketing for the greater good," said Greg Stuart, CEO, MMA. "With this unique and diverse structure of senior leaders across the marketing ecosystem, MMA is not only setting the standard for a new model of trade group but with our unique ability to marshal collective insight and influence to change the practice of marketing, we will also restore the 'stature and gravitas' into the office of the CMO."
