Elen Lewis, editor Think

Welcome to the February edition of Think, the new members-only, monthly insight from the Marketing Society. It’s an eclectic selection of features to inform, educate and entertain. Every month there will be five original articles that are big enough to make you think, but small enough to digest.

This month, John Grant gives us 10 rules of engagement; Google’s marketing director Dan Cobley never wants to grow up; an exclusive interview with Magners’ brand director Stephen Kent; marketers are learning to collaborate and our regular perusal of 10 things we learnt this month.
