In accordance with The One Show judging rules, jury members abstain from voting on work done for or by their own company.  

The jury will then select the CMO responsible for the one piece of work they feel had the greatest impact on moving a brand forward.  The winning CMO will be presented with the award on stage at The One Show 2022 awards ceremony, taking place on May 18 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York.

Past CMO Pencil winners are Raja Rajamannar, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer and President, Healthcare Business at Mastercard for "True Name", created by McCann New York; Kathleen Hall, Chief Brand Officer, Microsoft for Xbox "Changing the Game" also by McCann New York; David Rubin at The New York Times for "Truth is Worth It" from Droga5 New York, and Stephen Tisdale, CMO, State Street Global Advisors for "Fearless Girl", by McCann New York. 

The One Club, CEO Kevin Swanepoel said:

"It’s a tremendous honor for a CMO to be recognized by their peers with this prestigious award. This jury of top global marketing leaders will look for work that takes an innovative, bold stance, and has the greatest positive impact on a brand and its bottom line."

 

The honor is unique for The One Show in that all of its other awards are given to agency or brand creative teams, whereas the CMO Pencil is presented to the individual at the brand responsible for recognizing and shepherding great work to life.

The CMO Pencil is just one of the organization's initiatives to address and celebrate the fast-growing brand-side creative community.  For example, The One Show has a standalone Brand-Side discipline, with a dedicated jury of brand-side agency peers to judge the work.

The One Club also hosts the WITHIN: The In-House Creative Conference to address a void in the market for a forum to discuss issues specific to brand-side creative teams and cultures.  The conference examines the inner dynamics of the very best brand-side creative departments, with sessions by some of the most acclaimed brand and marketing leaders.
