Building and developing your team
Markedsføring omfatter et så bredt spekter av vekst- og markedsføringsrelaterte aktiviteter i en bedrift at jobben til en markedssjef er ganske kompleks. For å lede et markedsføringsteam på en effektiv måte må man ha flere hatter på seg - og bruke dem alle på en god måte.
Successful marketing teams require clear leadership and structure: Strong managers set vision, define roles, and align people around shared goals using effective communication and agile workflows.
Technology and tools drive performance: Centralized platforms like CRMs (e.g., Nutshell) streamline lead tracking, cross-team collaboration, and campaign execution.
Strategy and budget planning must be data-informed and agile: Combining research, KPI alignment, and flexible resource allocation is key to scaling sustainable marketing outcomes.

Start by establishing psychological safety—create an environment where team members feel safe sharing ideas, taking risks, and learning from mistakes without fear. Prioritize open communication, celebrate wins publicly, and involve your team in shaping values and goals. Invest in growth opportunities and show genuine interest in career development. Culture isn’t built overnight; consistency, vulnerability from leadership, and recognition matter most.
Set clear communication norms and expectations during onboarding—specify which tools to use, response times, and how to collaborate asynchronously. Use real-time dashboards for visibility into project status. Schedule intentional connection moments like virtual coffee breaks or team celebrations. Document processes and decisions in shared spaces so distributed teams stay aligned. Tools like project management software and CRMs help centralize information and reduce silos.
Define role-specific KPIs beyond campaign metrics—track quality of work, project completion rates, collaboration contributions, and growth. Compare individual performance against benchmarks from your team’s standards. Give feedback more frequently than annual reviews; 92% of employees prefer regular check-ins. Combine quantitative data with qualitative observations from peers and supervisors for a holistic view of performance.
Delegate execution and tactical work—content creation, social media scheduling, email campaigns, and reporting. Keep strategy, hiring decisions, stakeholder management, and team leadership for yourself. Choose the right person for each task, communicate expectations clearly, provide support, and appreciate results. Delegation frees your time for high-impact initiatives that drive growth and develop your team’s skills.
Address it promptly and compassionately. First, identify the root cause—missing skills, unclear expectations, personal issues, or misalignment. Set clear improvement goals and provide support like training, mentorship, or resource adjustments. Schedule regular check-ins to monitor progress and recognize improvements. If the performance gap persists despite support, document your efforts and consider whether the role fits their strengths.
