Meet Emily Kortlang: The Trailblazing Marketer Who Defied Odds

In the marketing realm, success lies in the intersection of creativity and strategy. While many professionals and organizations claim to ace marketing, only a few offer truly measurable results in the industry. Emily Kortlang is one such trailblazing marketeer who has solidified her position in the industry. Her journey from humble beginnings to becoming a Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) reflects her resilience and determination, making her an inspiration for aspiring talents in the industry.

With each milestone Emily accomplished, she created her roadmap to success as a marketeer. Currently the CMO of a reputed organization, Emily spearheads exclusive marketing campaigns with finesse. Leveraging her expertise honed through years of experience and an MBA degree, Emily is leaving her mark not only in the company she is working for but also in the industry as a whole. Her influence extends beyond boardrooms as a judge in prestigious panels for organizations such as D&AD, Cannes Lions, and APG.

Her marketing prowess is evident from the multiple marketing awards she won from esteemed platforms like D&AD, Cannes, Clio, and Smartie. These accolades reflect her creativity as a marketer and showcase her ability to innovate and captivate audiences across diverse demographics.  As an active participant in the industry, Emily is lending her expertise in revered marketing and advertising competitions.

Apart from her illuminating presence in the boardroom, Emily is also acing her role as a wife and mother with grace. She is a mother of two and also a fitness enthusiast who is extremely good at handstands. Despite her demanding schedule, Emily epitomizes the delicate balance between career aspirations and personal fulfillment.

Emily’s journey of becoming one of the upper echelons of the marketing world originally began in the borough of Hackney, East London, and not from any advanced state like California or Washington. Raised in a single-parent household amidst socio-economic challenges, she defied stereotypes and surpassed expectations. Guided by her mother’s unwavering support and determination, Emily navigated through adversity, seizing every opportunity to carve her path to success.

Her entry into the marketing realm was entirely unexpected, sparked by a stint as the iconic Red Bull girl. The role ignited her passion for storytelling and brand narratives, eventually shaping her career in the industry. From playing the iconic Red Bull girl, Emily made her way into the industry by working with renowned brands, including Beats by Dr. Dre, where she played a crucial role in its meteoric rise and subsequent acquisition by Apple.

Emily’s accomplishments are quite impressive but they didn’t come easy. She struggled to overcome imposter syndrome, a lingering doubt that she doesn’t belong in spaces dominated by the privileged. Yet, she remained steadfast in her pursuit, driven by the necessity to pave the way for others from underprivileged backgrounds. Through all the hardships in her journey, Emily has learned to never stop learning, never compromise authenticity, and, above all, believe in the power of perseverance.

Emily envisions a future where she successfully balances her roles as a mother, wife, and career woman. For her, happiness lies in the equilibrium between personal fulfillment and professional success which she is pursuing with unwavering determination and boundless optimism.

Emily Kortlang is not a talented professional in the world of marketing but an inspiration and hope to many underprivileged individuals who are dreaming big. As her journey unfolds, Emily Kortlang is emerging as a force reshaping the narrative of success for modern women in the corporate world.
