Why authenticity is still vital for senior marketing leaders

Is human authenticity still a competitive advantage in an AI-driven, metric-obsessed marketing world?

In this episode of the CIM Marketing Podcast, host Ben Walker is joined by award-winning marketing leader and author Visha Kudhail (ex-Google, YouTube, Pinterest, Square UK) to unpack what authentic marketing really looks like in practice. Together, they go far beyond buzzwords, TikTok trends, and vanity metrics.

Drawing on insights from her new book, “Authentic Marketing”, Visha explores how brands can use AI without outsourcing their soul, and why audience-first, intent-driven strategies are the real differentiator in a sea of sameness. She also shares powerful lessons from big tech leadership, building marketing functions from scratch, and a decade of championing women in leadership positions.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What authenticity actually means in marketing, and why most brands get it wrong
  • How to align values, leadership, product, and marketing so your brand truly matches its beliefs
  • How to build and lead high-performing marketing teams in complex, global organisations


If you’re a marketer, comms leader, or aspiring CMO wondering how to stay relevant in the AI era, this episode is for you.
