Above aforementioned traits are desirable, but has anyone mentioned what skills are needed to be a truly successful marketing executive?
How about the four D's?
Desire... without the passionate desire to succeed in anything you do, you will fail.
Determination... You need to have the tenacity of a weed if you are going to compete in today's guerrilla market society.
Dedication... You need to eat, sleep and live what you do to stay on top of the pack.
Discipline...The organized preplanned work ethic that is necessary to get the job done, finished, completed. The day to day ritual that grinds your way to success.
That's all I have to add to the very comprehensive answers above. Hope it helps.
