Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

PMMs carry big responsibilities but lack formal authority. Build influence by mapping stakeholders by attitude and influence using a matrix that identifies Power Allies, Skeptical Gatekeepers, Advocacy Builders, and Quiet Resisters. Focus on delivering high-impact projects for high-influence stakeholders to build trust. Maintain influence by dedicating at least 30% of time to managing relationships through communication and collaboration.
