On this Episode of the BRITE Ideas podcast, Matt and JP speak with Kim Miller ’08, Chief Marketing Officer of The Economist Group [NOTE: Kim left her role between recording this interview and posting it]. Kim talks about the unique charter of The Economist that is designed to protect its journalist independence – as an example, on marketing communications decisions Kim reports to the Editor in Chief who has authority over The Economist brand. As with many episodes, Kim also details the strong mission driven nature of the company – driving progress – and how that can help balance the commercial and brand needs facing any media company. In addition, Kim talks about leadership as a member of the LGBTQ+ community and her own BRITE Idea passion to combat the climate crisis – a pillar of the brand she works for.
