Almost two years ago I interviewed Jeff Jones, CEO of H&R Block, on CMO Moves and he was looking to hire a new CMO. A month later, Vinoo Vijay became the new CMO of H&R Block so it was an immense pleasure to meet Vinoo and find out more about all the great initiatives he’s been leading. First of all, timely, tax day deadline is a few days away amid the most unusual year on record. Vinoo takes us through how he and the team pivoted to serve their customers, as well as how he and his team pivoted in how they work together. Second, and most impressive, is how Vinoo is thinking about community, diversity and inclusion with “Make Every Block Better”. Third and final (for now), I hugely appreciated chatting with Vinoo about superpowers, dot connecting, the role of marketing as journalists, and his tips for success for marketers today. This episode is packed full of great advice, great perspective and great urgency. I hope you enjoy Vinoo as much as I did and stay tuned for his masterclass on Financial Acumen. He doesn’t realize I took this seriously, but help me convince to do it, because it is needed, and he is spot on!
