About this episode
Jim's guest this week on The CMO Podcast is Micky Onvural, the Chief Marketing and Communications Officer at TIAA, whose mission is to help people find confidence in retirement. TIAA is an acronym for Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association; it was founded 105 years ago by Andrew Carnegie, to help teachers with their financial security in their retirement. TIAA is now a Fortune 100 financial services organization, with revenue north of $40 billion, serving clients in academic, research, cultural, medical, and governmental fields. Micky is a returning guest on The CMO Podcast–she joined Jim in October 2021 when she was the CEO of Bonobos, the apparel brand owned by Walmart at the time. This is Jim's first guest who was a CMO, became a CEO, and then returned to a CMO role. Micky is a graduate of Cambridge University, where she studied French and Spanish, before beginning a career that took her to L’Oreal, Kellogg’s, eBay, Trulia, Bonobos, and now TIAA. Tune in as Jim welcomes a CMO–who was a CEO–and discovered she would rather be a CMO!
