WHAT IS A THOUGHT LEADER?
Lauren Hockenson, writing for Mashable:
“It’s not enough to be good at what you do; a
thought leader is … someone who is on the
absolute cutting edge of their industry or
making big enough moves to warrant the
distinction.”
Alex Ivanov, for Huffington Post, says:
“I always considered a thought leader to be an
individual or organization that has earned the distinction
through years of experience combined with research,
publications, public speaking, teaching, inventions, and,
possibly, awards. It’s an individual or organization that
has shaped our thinking and practice.”
