CMOs sit at the apex of brand, revenue, customer experience, technology, product, sales and data. Yet they're spending less time in top jobs. The average tenure of a CMO at a Fortune 500 company is now just 3.9 years.

Coverage beats convenience. Zhu stressed that surveys and small samples don't tell the whole story. Without broad, representative data, decisions risk building bias into customer journeys.

Franz reminded the audience that insights must be synthesized, socialized and operationalized to influence employee and customer experiences.
