Burn the playbook
<p>Some CMOs walk into a new role with a playbook already in hand. Frameworks that worked before, campaigns that grew the last company from five to fifty million. Handy. Except when it isn't.<br>In this episode of CMO Therapy, Lucy is joined by the brilliant Louise Beaumont to talk about exactly that moment: when the playbook that made you look like a genius somewhere else suddenly doesn't fit, because the category's different, the audience doesn't even know they have the problem yet, and the map you're used to following just... doesn't exist.<br>So what do you do? Burn it. Literally the title of this episode.<br>Louise sums up the mindset perfectly: "if you get it right, if you shift enough worldviews, if you create a category that didn't exist before, it's the best feeling in the world."<br>If you've ever walked into a role and quietly wondered whether what worked before will work again, this one's going to hit home.</p><p><br></p><p>Music clip by Filo Starquez, Divergence</p>
