What’s one thing you’re hoping to see change in marketing in 2026?

I’ll go first. I’m hoping we slow down a little. I think companies have been so focused on pumping more and more AI slop out that isn’t strategic or effective. I’d way rather develop less but more effective assets. Quality > quantity

I'd personally like to see management rein in its expectations. My department lost headcount and budget this year, but our KPI goals were as lofty (i.e. unrealistic) as ever. We did the best we could, but at a certain point, there's only so much you can do. I'm praying they'll either see reason OR give us the budget and manpower we need to hit these ridiculous targets.

I hope to see a change in job descriptions. Going back to where people could specialize in a role and not have to do everything top to bottom.

I’d like leaders to approach AI sensibly. It shouldn’t be a race to have it just to have it.

Agreed. It’s been AI everywhere and no long term strategic vision.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
