Marketers Rank Strategy as Biggest Skill Gap, Not AI

A survey by The Drum and MiniMBA of 216 marketing alumni reveals a surprising trend: despite the industry's focus on AI, only 4.2% identify AI and technology capabilities as their biggest training need, and just 10.2% cite keeping pace with AI as their top challenge. Instead, strategic thinking is seen as the most critical skill for the next five years (34.3%), with AI literacy as the second (17.6%). Marketers expect AI to accelerate execution and automate repetitive tasks, but believe that strategic judgment is becoming more valuable. Industry professionals quoted emphasize that while AI will transform how marketing works, defining the right approach and knowing what to do will be the key differentiator. The findings suggest foundational strategy remains a critical gap despite rapid AI adoption.
