Future Leaders with Mick Doran - Noggins, Narratives & Navigating What’s Next in Marketing

Almost 30 years in Marketing gives you a lot of stories. Some brilliant. Some disasters and some that belong in a locked drawer marked "never speak of this again".

As part of our 2025 Future Leaders programme, in partnership with The Lane, we are thrilled to welcome Mick Doran, CMI Director at C&C Group and fellow of the Marketing Society to share some insights from his career journey.

This session will also spotlight the FL book club sharing the best ideas from the best books to shake up how you think about work, life and leadership.

In this session, you will:

• ​​​​​​Discover how Mick Doran built his career — and why rebuilding the right culture is one of the smartest growth strategies in business today.
• Take part in a lively discussion about the best decisions, biggest myths, must-read books, and memorable advice that have influenced Mick’s career — and your own path so far.
• Participate in a speed mentoring session with senior marketers.
