Introduction:
As the research and analysis division of the Economist Group, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) helps leaders prepare for opportunity, empowering them to act with confidence when making strategic decisions. The EIU is the global standard in providing quality, actionable intelligence to the public and private sector, assessing issues that impact the marketplace for over two hundred countries.

The Economist Intelligence Corporate Network (EICN) is the executive briefing and networking service of The EIU. Participating in our members-only C-suite group helps international firms understand the political, economic and business environments of the markets where they operate, and particularly what impact changes in this macro environment will have on business.

- Manage the whole sales cycle from prospecting through to closing the sale
- Ensure the right level and number of participants attend member events
- Take ownership of your remit as if it was your own business
- Act as a trustworthy and reliable Economist Group brand ambassador

- A certain level of refinement and sophistication when communicating
