Abstract:
The world of Marketing is a multifaceted broad discipline and over recent years it has fundamentally changed. Marketing is consistently evolving and many authors are calling for a new definition. A shift in thinking is necessary in order to identify new opportunities and re-examine the conventional models. The recent Contemporary Marketing Practice series of research has looked at describing Marketing practices within the marketing context. This programme analyses the multiple disciplines within marketing. It does not, however deconstruct or examine marketing practices. It merely examines the

Abstract:
Contemporary societies all over the world face issues that have been characterised as “wicked problems”. Wicked problems are difficult to define and are ingrained in complex systems, with numerous stakeholders involved. Although the causes of such problems cannot be easily delineated, they commonly can be associated with the practice of preventable behaviours at the individual level. An example is sedentary behaviours, which combined with an unhealthful diet can lead to problems like obesity, diabetes type 2 and more (World Health Organization, 2015c).

Abstract:
For almost half a century, academics have laboured over the refinement of managerial models of marketing derived, originally, from studies of consumer goods marketing in North America. These models were firmly rooted in the microeconomic market model and ideas of monopolistic competition. Yet critics have long argued that these managerial models and the assumptions on which they were based were inappropriate for international, business-to business or services marketing situations. From the mid-1980s onwards, alternative approaches to marketing theory began to emerge, in response to a widening
