I joined the faculty at Melbourne Business School in 2008 from University College
Cork, Ireland. My principal academic interest is in the impact of marketing activities
and assets on company performance. My research has been published in leading academic
journals such as the European Journal of Marketing, the International Journal of Research
in Marketing and the Journal of Marketing among others. I have been a visiting scholar at
various universities and business schools including Melbourne Business School (2007),
Notre Dame University in the USA, The Tajik State University in Dushanbe, and the
University of Irkutsk in Siberia. 

I am a member of the advisory board of the Chief Marketing Officers (CMO) Council of the
USA. Since 2003 I have led the Council's Marketing Performance Measurement (MPM)
research program, and I am a co-author of the Council's Report on this topic. 

Previously, I was Client Services Director at a marketing services agency targeting the
European technology sector. In this role I was responsible for a range of blue-chip
clients including Microsoft, Siemens, Hewlett-Packard and Computer Associates. My team
developed numerous international award-winning campaigns including an global ECHO award
and two Icon Awards from BusinessWeek. 

I consult to various firms on the management of marketing performance and marketing
metrics.
