Claudine Cheever (Amazon) | Learn to Be a Leader of Leaders

With the holidays nearly upon us, this episode of The CMO Podcast offers some insight and perspective on this year’s holiday season. Joining Jim this week is Claudine Cheever, the VP and Global Head of Brand and Marketing at Amazon. Since its founding in 1994 by Jeff Bezos, Amazon has profoundly changed life and business. Thirty years later–Amazon’s revenue is nearly $600 billion, with a market cap of about $2 trillion. It's among the few brands that people just cannot imagine living without. Claudine forged an unlikely path to becoming the Head of Global Brand and Marketing at Amazon. She earned a Bachelors Degree at Colorado State University in Liberal Arts, and later acquired a Masters Degree from the University of North Carolina in American Studies. Claudine started her career as an editor at a publishing company, and eventually had a 20-year run at some of the most famous ad agencies in the world–including McCann, Saatchi & Saatchi, and Ogilvy. About eight years ago, Claudine went from agency to client and joined Amazon. Tune in for a conversation with a leader who joined a brand for the opportunity, but stayed for the creativity and culture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
