It’s no secret: marketing punches below its weight in the Boardroom. CEOs and other board members perceive that marketers lack commercial credibility when compared to their peers. Marketing in the Boardroom helps marketers to be more commercially credible and thereby more successful in the Boardroom. Ruth Saunders explains the importance of marketing in the Boardroom, and why marketers often struggle to engage the Board. She then shows how to develop compelling marketing strategies that the Board will buy into, offering a mix of practical solutions and varied case studies drawn from her years of industry experience. In the final section, she helps marketers better understand the Board mindset and language, demonstrating how to win over the Board members’ hearts, minds and confidence.

It is also an important book for their organizations, particularly those that struggle to give marketing the support it needs to create customer-led strategies that will drive business growth.

EMO TALMIDGE's birth should never have happened. He was born to white trash and is diagnosed as a special needs child. The story begins in 1965 in the small Cajun town of Frampton, Louisiana, and destiny becomes distorted. As a young teen, Emo finds his solace away from adversity on the banks of the Yorkley Bayou and there he meets TYLER MONROE. It matters not that Tyler is black and that racial tension is rampant. Emo finds the friendship natural and beneficial, as does Tyler, and from that relationship comes the convoluted and tragic story revealed in Magnolias Don't Cry. It's a tale weaving together an assortment of disjointed personalities, political intrigue and the soul of New Orleans' famed French Quarter. Two women of divergent ways, one a prostitute and the other a social worker, struggle towards healing the deeply etched wounds of these two boys who have become fused together by the ravages of hate and revenge. But the women's efforts fail, as Louisiana politics interferes and in the end malevolence persists and its consequence shatters the lives of all.
