OF MARKETING
Marketing analytics is the critical lens through which we observe, learn & evolve to
provide clarity on our marketing activity
Looking back is still as
important as looking
forward. If we don’t learn
from the past we cannot
improve & if we don’t know
where our customers have
been we can’t predict where
they’re going:
1. Reporting
2. Profiling
3. Measurement
Everyone is an analyst?
Democratisation of data has
increased ability to share
information but… you still need
‘interpreters’ to identify the
genuine insight
1. Campaign post mortem &
learnings
2. Channel optimisation
Analytics is an infinity loop &
marketers more than ever need to
embrace a test & learn culture to
adapt & win in this fast paced
environment We must use
hindsight & insight to continually
evolve our customer foresight
Data! Data!
Data! I can’t
make bricks
without clay!
Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle
The tools we now have make it
more accessible & accurate to
predict our customers future
behaviour:
1. Marketing mix
2. Influencer programmes
3. Buying teams
4. Multi touch attribution

WE START WITH A GROWTH MINDSET
At Microsoft, we’re focused on what matters. And what matters is people.
To us technology is a facilitator, an expeditor and enabler. Technology isn’t life, but it is life changing
We are learners, insatiably curious. We learn from each other, finding the genius in what’s been done, eager to improve upon it
We are welcomers, we are open and receptive to
the ideas of others. We don’t just value differences,
we invite them in, creating an environment
where we will do the best work of our lives
We are one company with one mission.
We push, prod and challenge the norm –
and each other – so that united we are able to
take on some of the world’s greatest challenges
We are listeners. We design, build,
engineer, deliver, revise, refine and perfect
based on how our customers choose,
use and love our technology

Editor's Notes

  1. So why now? Why do the Leadership Principles matter now? Microsoft stands for empowering every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more, and that’s a mission we can only achieve if we live our culture. Our culture is the most important driver of our success. It influences what we do at Microsoft, and how we do it. Our culture enables our strategy and bold ambitions.   We’ve clarified who we are as Microsoft and the company’s renewed direction, and now it’s time to go the next step by helping to personalize what our transformation means for leaders. What should Microsoft leaders do? How can Microsoft leaders change the energy around them? How can Microsoft leaders contribute to our success? Our leadership principles are connected to our culture and they represent the ambitions and expectations we have for our leaders. They are designed to complement the existing frameworks at Microsoft, including the mission, strategy, bold ambitions, and cultural attributes. These leadership principles will help us better align to our culture, execute against our strategy, and fulfill our mission as Microsoft.
