Welcome to the latest episode of Marketing In Times of Crisis hosted by me, Ayo Abbas, a marketing consultant who specialises in all things built environment.  

Today's guest is Emily Binning who is the UK Head of Brand and Marketing at global engineering powerhouse WSP.  I know Emily from when we both worked at Arup and this interview was a lovely way to reconnect. 

Key takeaways

• How strategy should be simple and, on a page
• How to push back on BAU (Business As Usual) activity so that you can focus on the things that are strategically important to the business 
• Building a high performing marketing team and create the right environment for them to flourish 
• The importance of having a good  martech stack  (marketing technology) - it's been a lifeline during lockdown for her marketing team
