 June 07, 2016 / by [EMM Group](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/author/emm-group)

We recently had the chance to sit down with [Ben Sharp](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bensharp), of Visa’s Digital Transformation team, to discuss his passion for marketing. In the [previous post](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/visas-ben-sharp-talks-marketing-skills-development-and-sales-enablement-part-1), Ben discussed the skills marketers are lacking in today’s business environment, where marketers should focus when it comes to developing their own marketers, and what Visa does to develop those skills. This is the second part of a two-part series.

 April 27, 2016 / by [Sat Duggal](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/author/sat-duggal)

## [Why is Change Management Vital to Commercial Excellence?](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/why-is-change-management-vital-to-commercial-excellence)

 January 26, 2016 / by [EMM Group](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/author/emm-group)

[Change management](https://www.emmgroup.net/change-management) is one of the most important factors in nearly every strategic marketing consultation we undertake, yet it is often the least valued by the client. We know this because if there’s a budget or resource crunch after the program has begun – change management is *always* the part that gets de-emphasized.

## [A Marketer's New Year's Resolution - Resist Internal Focus](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/a-marketers-new-years-resolution-to-fight-internal-focus)

 January 12, 2016 / by [Rajat Kapur](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/author/rajat-kapur)

![Customer_Focus.jpg](https://www.emmgroup.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Image/Customer_Focus.jpg?width=221&name=Customer_Focus.jpg "Customer_Focus.jpg")One of the toughest jobs a successful marketer faces is driving a culture of customer-focus inside their organization. During [periods of change](https://www.emmgroup.net/change-management) - such as internal re-orgs, mergers, acquisitions, or similar turmoil - this challenge can be amplified.  The calendar has hit January; many of our clients face higher than normal organizational chaos, so a call for added focus may be more appropriate than ever.

 January 05, 2016 / by [EMM Group](https://www.emmgroup.net/insights/author/emm-group)

Do you remember what it was like when you were a little kid going to a family dinner for a special occasion? All the adults got to sit around the big dining room table talking, laughing, and clinking glasses while you and a couple of your cousins were stuck at “the kiddie table.”
