The Business of Truth: Building a Brand People Believe In According to The New York Times’ Amy Weisenbach

Great marketing isn’t just strategy. It’s human.

They dissect the importance of marketers to understand consumer needs, navigating tension between business goals and brand values and the art of saying no to maintain brand integrity.
