Morgan Flatley (McDonald's) | Risks Equal Rewards


Listen Later

Morgan Flatley is the Global Chief Marketing Officer for McDonald’s, which is a brand that needs no introduction. McDonald’s is, of course, a fixture in culture—and has been a marketing trailblazer for decades. McDonald’s may be 67 years old, but it’s not acting that way—the stock price has more than doubled in the past five years, and revenue over the last year grew in the 20% range. 

Morgan joined McDonald’s in 2017. Previously, she spent nearly 13 years at PepsiCo, holding numerous roles and working her way up the ladder. She got her start at Satchi & Saatchi, a leading global communications and advertising network, where she spent 3 years. 

This conversation highlights Morgan's extraordinary mindset and just how far she's come. The discussion delves into the pillars at McDonald's that keep a legacy brand relevant, the importance of encouraging risk taking, and fostering creativity—plus, how a well supported team will do great things.


CMOs often hold one of the most innovative and challenging roles in business today. Those who excel can operate at the highest level to drive growth and create value for their organizations. To learn more how Deloitte helps bolster the value CMOs deliver, visit www.cmo.deloitte.com.
