“There are very few opportunities in a career where you get the resources and expert support to look at your leadership style with such a forensic approach. Everyone knows The Marketing Academy breaks down the walls of doubt and indecision, but few realise that TMA also builds bridges, mends fences, and sets the course for fruitful careers lasting decades. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to have been involved and to have met my wonderful fellow scholars.” 2022 Scholar
“TMA is hands down one of the most rewarding experiences of my career to date. Time to focus on you and your leadership journey to benefit the people around you that you influence is invaluable. This has fuelled me to drive my career and the work that I do like I stole it. I’m in the driver’s seat and I am so excited on what future holds as TMA Alumni.” 2022 Scholar
