The Techmap Podcast

This is the first in a series of podcast episodes where I'll be exploring the business of marketing and not marketing itself. I'm starting with arguably the most important part of marketing: people and how we go about creating a high performing team that fuels the growth of our agency or the success of our in-house marketing team. Getting your team firing on all cylinders is a huge part of driving business performance. But, in the ever-changing World in which marketers operate, it's not an easy task. I don't have to tell you that the marketing discipline is ever changing, driven along by rapid innovation and new tech. This means there's a constant stream of change, which in turn often leads to stress. Enter Gary Cole and his team of coaches at Archipelo, who help their clients to understand and then address some of these challenges.
