Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

I continued :

 

“ can you recommend some executives for the position of Chief Marketing Manager for an Automotive Company ? “

Avatar replied :

 

“ Based on the resumes shared, I can recommend several strong candidates for the Chief Marketing Manager position:

 

Ashish Deshpande stands out with 23 years of experience in corporate communications and marketing across diverse engineering companies. His current role at Kirloskar Oil Engines Limited involves managing communications across 10 business verticals including automotive. His MBA from Symbiosis with marketing specialization is highly relevant.

 

Aamit Khanna brings extensive automotive marketing experience, having worked with marquee brands like Mercedes, Mahindra, and Tata Motors. His proven track record in brand communications, ATL/BTL marketing, and managing large teams makes him a strong fit. His last CTC was 35 LPA.

 

There's also a candidate with 22 years of direct automotive industry experience from Maruti-Suzuki and General Motors, with an IIT degree and MBA from Symbiosis. Their technical background combined with marketing expertise could be valuable.

 

I recommend prioritizing Ashish and Aamit for interviews given their relevant experience in automotive marketing communications and proven leadership capabilities. Both candidates are immediately available and bring the right mix of strategic and hands-on marketing experience needed for this role.

 

Would you like me to share more detailed profiles of any of these candidates?
