Manage episode 407356037 series 3559665
Two words that perfectly define her - gratitude and humility. Two characteristic traits that aren’t so common these days for someone of her influence and professional achievement. Jenny Rooney - the first Chief Experience Officer of Adweek - has had a front-row seat leading initiatives for marketing decision-makers and spent 25 years covering the industry and its leadership as a business journalist. Her life choices remain firmly grounded in her number one priority - her family.
Of course, we had to talk about that mindset guiding her decisions. This episode is jam-packed with Jenny’s personal stories and perspectives on making it all work while staying true to oneself, defining success, and the importance of continuous learning.
Landing an interview as a graduate student with one of the most sought-after journalists is a great window to her belief in the power of words and the importance of how you approach people. Zeroing in on marketing, Jenny shares her view of marketers as some of the most courageous in the business, without getting the credit for it. All while sitting on the front lines of uncertainty.
