The Rockstar CMO Studio: Cathy at CMS Connect – Rockstar CMO FM

This week, Cathy McKnight, Chief Problem Solver at Seventh Bear, makes her monthly visit to the studio, and our host Ian Truscott grabs her after day 1 of CMS Connect 25, a gathering of content management professionals in Montreal, and she shares the latest talking points from the world of content management.  Some talking points from this week: CMSs are still valid and necessary for digital experiences, but digital experience platforms (DXPs) are not a thing. The death of the website is bullshit, and the CMS plays a key role in management and orchestration across all channels.  Artificial intelligence is obviously a hot topic, and there are some interesting use cases in content workflows, governance, and approval.  Composability and headless remain a hot technical trend, but not much is changing in terms of what buyers are asking for.  Accessibility was a surprisingly hot topic, and it’s often overlooked. People, process, governance, and operations remain a technology-agnostic challenge regardless of the acronym used to describe them (DAM, MAM, MRM, WCM, etc). A dive into indulging our inner content geeks, and ss always, we welcome your feedback.  Enjoy! — The Links The people: Ian Truscott on LinkedIn and Bluesky Cathy McKnight on LinkedIn Mentioned this week: The story of Boye & Co CMS Connect 25 – Boye & Company Seventh Bear Rockstar CMO: The Beat Newsletter that we send every Monday Rockstar CMO on the web, Twitter, and LinkedIn Previous episodes and all the show notes: Rockstar CMO FM.

I love everything about this show!
Where do I begin? I love Rockstar CMO. It’s a regular Saturday listen for me. Ian and Jeff have insightful back and forth conversations about the issues of the day, which in an of itself is a great pod. But then there’s a guest … sometimes two … with smarts to share. Then Robert Rose comes in and talks content over a cocktail? It’s like a variety show for marketers. Super smart. Great energy. Brilliant all the way around.
