Look around you. One in six households in America is currently food insecure, meaning they have little or no access to food. That could be your next-door neighbor or the house across the street. Now look closer. One in four children in America is food insecure. When schools were open, many would leave on a Friday afternoon and not get another meal until they came back to school on Monday morning. When the schools were asked to close, then what happened? Cathy Davis discusses America's growing hunger problem - now estimated 54 million people without food, up from 37 million pre-Covid, and ways brands and individuals can help drive awareness and action towards solving it.

Peter Giorgi, CMO of Celebrity Cruises, didn’t take his first flight until he was 24 years old, yet this serial travel executive is an avid adventurer who loves to embrace risk, evident by his recent birthday trip to Lake Placid for a 13-mile hike and a giant stack of pancakes. Peter is excited for the time when the ships will sail again, and he says they will be better than normal. He also shares why the cruise industry is much better positioned for a comeback than the airlines right now. Join us in this lively discussion about the current state of the travel industry, how to position a team for a comeback, how he grew in his career, where he finds inspiration and how he is always pushing the boundaries. And don’t miss the hysterical story on how he missed his flight to meet with his now CEO, who he didn’t think he’d ever work for. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

What an honor to interview the Queen Interviewer of all time, Katie Couric, Award-Winning Journalist, Co-Founder, Stand Up To Cancer, and Founder, Katie Couric Media. In this unique episode of CMO Moves we cover a large range of topics that are top of mind for all marketers today, including social unrest, health and wellness, shift in media budgets, rise of social media importance and the power of brands working together. When Katie is not fighting social injustice, fighting cancer or fighting economic downturn, she’s busy fighting hunger. And today, on the 22nd anniversary of the 1998’s hit family movie The Parent Trap, she brought back the original cast (less Natasha Richardson, sadly) via her Instagram channel to raise funds for World Central Kitchen’s emergency relief and resiliency programs in the wake of Covid-19.

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 Acum

As her father once told her, “You want to be slightly ahead of the curve. Not so far ahead that people don't understand what you're doing and you certainly don't want to be behind.” Stephanie McMahon, the first Chief Brand Officer of the WWE, is fourth-generation in the tremendous organization that is led by her father, Vince McMahon, CEO and Chairman, so she kind of has to listen to him for many reasons. But, that specific guidance has resonated with her and steered all her expansions that she’s brought forward which have evolved WWE from a live sport to a multi-media entertainment conglomerate who is heavily invested in supporting their diverse community. There is so much packed in this episode that blew my mind and my heart. I hope you find time to tune into this special episode all about heroes and villains!
