The MMA India report showcases ways to improve capability fit and brings forth an ecosystem POV to share key insights and expertise on building winning marketing organisations.

The Modern Marketing Reckoner 2022 offers a playbook for the modern marketer across various pillars spanning brand, consumer, data, technology, and organisational culture. It is a combination of insightful viewpoints of more than 50 marketing leaders from diverse modern marketing organisations. It showcases the modern marketing capability map which is a combination of customer value and organizational value and is a comprehensive guide that focuses on discovering growth, building platforms, leveraging assets, enhancing data creation, and management, increasing personalization, augmenting value, and building purpose and communities among many others.

Moneka Khurana, Country Head and Board Member India, MMA India, said, “The huge societal and behavioural changes in the last two years have forced marketers to learn how to put in place the technology, people, and processes needed to better understand consumer needs and provide more authentic and immersive as well as relatable customer experiences.
