Elizabeth Rutelidge is Named the New CMO at American Express
Elizabeth Rutledge has spent over 25 years at American Express and just last week the powerhouse was named Chief Marketing Officer of American Express. Rutledge joins Cheddar to explain how she will add to the C Suite and why she is excited about the role.
Rutledge explains that she has been able to succeed in her roles due to internal "sponsorship" at American Express. She is proud of the network of women that support one another in the company.
Rutledge also speaks to being a working mom. She said she tries her best to be good at both jobs every day, but some days she is better at one role than the other.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
