To kick off Looking Outside we’re joined in Episode 1 by talented and bold marketer Rose Jia, Head of Growth Marketing at Amazon Grocery.  Today we’re looking outside Marketing.
Together Jo and Rose explore the tried and true practice of Marketing, and how organizations can stretch beyond familiar predefined pathways (and results) from marketing by employing a new mindset.
They discuss what kind of benefits await from embracing your prior roots and knowledge base (banking in Rose’s case) in approaching your current field, the advantage of collaborating with surprising functions, how we should be tapping into our natural curiosity to discipline our minds in multiple fields in order to better accomplish what we need to in our chosen one, why scaring your company with probable future disruptions is necessary to build a culture of risk taking and therein learning.

To look beyond the familiar Rose recommends you go down the Wikipedia rabbit hole, learning about something surprising. Or do the same with podcasts, her favorites for exploring beyond the typical norm: Imaginary Worlds, Reply All & Planet Money.
