The jump into a CMO role rarely comes with a handbook. You inherit teams, expectations and challenges all at once – and the skills that got you there won't keep you there.
Drawing on his path from Google to Chief Growth Officer at Oddbox, Gastón Tourn shares the lessons that only became clear in hindsight: how to build trust with a founder before you need it, why storytelling is the most useful skill not just as a marketer but as a C-level leader, and what changes when you go from running campaigns to owning outcomes.
Part career reflection, part practical playbook, this session is for anyone eyeing the CMO seat – or already in it and wondering what's going on.
