Career Potential for
Digital Marketing Strategists
Because digital and social need to be built into corporate
strategy, companies are increasingly adding a Digital Marketing
Strategist to their Board of Directors to help the board make
profitable business decisions regarding the company’s online
presence.
“If a board wants…people who are on top of all the nuances of
digital and the new trends, they’re…going to recruit people in for
whom it may be their first board experience. Their perspective and
ability to provide unique insight will help keep the company as an
influencer in the industry.”
“Digital expertise on the board: An Interview with Dan Rosensweig”
