"Ensure Every Voice Is Heard The best work never happens in silos-it happens when different perspectives come together. You can't have the most effective or best discussions unless trust and psychological safety exist first. Find great leaders of people you trust to create this culture in their own functions and lead by example. Make sure every voice is heard, create moments for collaboration and recognize it. - Kelly Starman, MasterControl"
"Align Vision With Daily Action Relentlessly align vision and action. One of our team's guiding principles is "Don't mistake activity for strategy." It means focus on the things that lead to a North Star everyone understands. I make a habit of asking, "How does this impact broader business performance and move our mission forward?" When everyone can connect their daily work to the big picture, you unlock speed and purpose. - Shannon Reedy, Terakeet"
High-performing marketing teams combine creative work with leadership, culture, and repeatable practices that drive measurable impact. Leaders must build psychological safety so diverse perspectives collaborate openly, create moments for cross-functional input, and recognize contributions. Teams must relentlessly align vision with daily actions, prioritize work that moves business performance, and connect individual tasks to a clear North Star. Strong teams emphasize collective wins over individual recognition, foster cross-functional collaboration, and minimize silos to accelerate speed, purpose, and sustainable results. Leaders should model team-first behavior and hire or develop people leaders who sustain the desired culture.
