Search interest in "AI marketing" in South Africa rose 90% between June 2024 and July 2025. As AI becomes part of marketing practice, the need for sound professional judgement remains.

A tool can produce polished campaign directions without knowing which one the business needs. Choosing between them takes market knowledge, ethics and commercial judgement, and that is what a specialist marketing qualification is built to develop.

Our latest article explores how AI is changing marketing work and which skills remain essential. Read it here: https://nuel.ink/W2DVa5

How well do you really know your audience across the African continent?

Treating Africa as a single market is one of the most common pitfalls in brand strategy today. Different markets bring vastly different cultural, digital, and economic contexts – even when using the exact same products.

Join Anisa Fielding, Head of Marketing at IMM Graduate School, at the Modern Marketing Power Hour as she presents "The African Consumer Decoded".

This session combines compelling data, surprising marketing facts, and real brand case studies to help marketers build strategies that actually resonate.

Place: Balcony in Hall 3, Gallagher Convention Centre, Midrand
Date: 8 September 2026
Time: 12:30-13:30

We asked the women in our network what they bring to the work that rarely gets named. Jacqui called it relationship work. Listening to a community, understanding what families feel, building trust over years instead of chasing a quick win.

Bronwyn pointed to teams that read a market from more than one angle, and the opportunities a uniform team misses.

Kershnee named four things at once. Commercial thinking, empathy, resilience and collaboration. And the often-underestimated leadership skill of bringing stakeholders towards a shared goal.

Clicks and conversions tell us part of the story. Trust, relationships and stakeholder confidence often develop long before they appear in performance metrics.

This Women's Month, that is the work worth recognising. If any of these stories sound like the work you are already doing, or the work you want to move into, explore IMM Graduate School's marketing and supply chain qualifications.

Jacqui Deeks, Head of Marketing and Communications at St John's College, completed her Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing Management through IMM Graduate School while working in a senior role.

What surprised her was how much the academic rigour stuck. Being made to justify strategy with evidence, rather than instinct alone, sharpened how she works even now.

For Jacqui, the value of the qualification extends beyond the credential itself. It strengthened a way of thinking that continues to influence how she approaches her work.

At IMM Graduate School, we believe meaningful recognition comes not only from the qualification you earn, but from the capability and credibility you build through it.

How can procurement functions move beyond reacting to change and build the resilience needed to thrive?

Dr Ernst van Biljon, Dean: Research at IMM Graduate School, will address this question at the 20th Annual Smart Procurement World Indaba on Tuesday, 15 September 2026.

His presentation, “Smart Procurement Today – Building Resilience, Relevance, and Results”, will examine the causes of volatility and disruptions in procurement and supply chain management, their impact on the business and the capabilities needed to respond to complexity.
