The Marketing Society’s global Uncomfortable Breakfast series aims to create comfortable spaces to have honest conversations, spark provocative debate and encourage people to step outside our comfort zone and push boundaries. It’s an opportunity to listen to leading marketers, share your thoughts and hear from your peers so that we all leave with tangible takeaways to make a difference.

Margaret Molloy, New York Chair and Global CMO, Siegel+Gale moderated a panel discussion about Leading with Talent at SAP’s headquarters in the vibrant new Hudson Yards neighborhood. CMOs from five critically important companies-Alicia Tillman, SAP; Ed Dandridge, AIG; Elizabeth Rutledge, American Express; Meg Goldthwaite, NPR; Michael Joseloff, Fortune-and Richard Sanderson, a senior recruiter from Spencer Stuart, were challenged to address this future. The resulting hour was an insightful and open discussion that started with a look at the past and then moved to address the future, one that everyone believes is flourishing, thriving, and successful.
