HOW DO YOU BECOME A THOUGHT LEADER?
@tomdebaere
BY BECOMING TOP OF MIND
@tomdebaere
WHAT DIFFERENTIATES A THOUGHT LEADER FROM ANY OTHER
KNOWLEDGEABLE COMPANY, IS THE RECOGNITION FROM THE OUTSIDE
WORLD THAT THE COMPANY DEEPLY UNDERSTANDS ITS BUSINESS,
THE NEEDS OF ITS CUSTOMERS, AND THE MARKETPLACE IN WHICH IT
OPERATES.
