Today’s marketing professionals encounter the same challenges software developers struggled with for years: constant change, rapidly evolving technology and increasing complexity. By necessity, software engineers have become “hackers,” shedding prior conventions to tackle problems and devising solutions through invention and innovation. Digital marketer Scott Brinker makes the case that today’s marketers must co-opt the hacker spirit, and adopt agile and lean management practices to succeed with marketing in the digital environment.
