Australian Marketing Institute builds marketers a pathway to the boardroom with new courses

The Australian Marketing Institute (AMI) is acting on marketing professionals aspirations to gain a board position by partnering with leading Australian organisations that will comprehensively help marketers gain a seat at the board table.
