OK, should we edit that? Note that there's always going to be cross-
over
between groups and as long as the work's getting done, I
don't think
anyone will be upset if it's done with someone wearing a "marketing"
hat
or "ambassador" hat.
Sure! but only in a operative way.
Marketing is different from ambassador for their kind of work.
Anyway you're right, this is a small issue.

But the materials provided by Marketing have a direction, and any
materials we're creating should stick to a story we want/need to
convey
to users (and those will be consumed directly by users or by
ambassadors
talking to users).
I'm not completely sure about this.
Strategies need to be shared with ambassador, but reaching user
(target) in different ways.
IMHO in this case marketing is the glue between ambassadors and
users because we must prepare the ground for a specific event (press
releases, authorities etc. ), the ambassadors don't need to do
that as well; however we should be on their side for anything they
need.
In this way, yes we should dispel common myths, with press release
and with any other tool we have.
Greetings
