THE THOUGHT LEADERSHIP IMPERATIVE

Why Thought Leadership is critical in business today.

To be the market leader today you have to build evidence of your expertise. You have to stand out above your competitors by engaging with your customers (and competitors) as the industry leader. It’s about going from knowing something to being known for knowing something.

THE INSPIRED LEADER

It’s this lit up quality of great leaders that sets them apart. Culture, employee engagement and delivering results are all built on the foundation of an inspired organisation.

Matt Church is the founder of Thought Leaders Global, and is without a doubt Australia’s and possibly the world’s foremost authority on the topic of Thought Leadership.

Obsessed with helping clever people, organisations and businesses to be commercially smart, he founded Thought Leaders Global - an international education business that teaches Thought Leadership to consultants, business owners and executives in large organisations.

His mission is to demonstrate and educate on the exceptional power of Thought Leadership as a driving solution to the key business issues facing 21st century organisations.

Thought Leadership drives growth, develops leadership, feeds innovation , develops talent, increases engagement, instructs strategy and is without a doubt the best B2B sales and marketing solution around.

Not only does this mean he leads and speaks on the topic but he also teaches others why they should and how to go about doing it brilliantly.

A prolific author and serial entrepreneur, he has a lot of evidence to draw upon in his own story of the power of Thought Leadership. Matt is reluctant though to get overly carried away with this as he believes that empowering leaders to explore their own Thought Leadership is more important than sharing his own inspiring journey.

Matt is unlike any motivational speaker you might engage: He sees his job is to teach your people how to bring out greatness in others - not just be great themselves. Ironically you can’t shine a light on another’s path without also lighting your own.

In an era where ME seems to have taken precedence over US, Matt rebalances the equation by teaching that leadership in all its forms is about the affect we have on those around us that drives them to greatness.

He will customise any speech so that it meets the event brief and works in with meeting planners to exceed expectations and provide a rock and roll conference experience .

Why Thought Leadership?

Given the rapidly changing and competitive

marketplace, many organisations are looking for strategies that allow them to position themselves on the leading edge of their industry.

Are you or your clients facing some of these issues?

• Loss of effectiveness of traditional methods of attracting new business

• New or existing competitors being seen as ‘leading edge’

• Fragmented position in the market due to mixed communications

• Loss of key staff due to limited ability to foster their expertise

• Challenged with getting people to innovate & execute on thought leading ideas

Becoming and being recognised in your market as a Thought Leader is the perfect way for your organisation to address many of these issues. By having a team of “Thought Leaders” across your organisation, they would become internal and external promoters for your business and your brand.

How to capture, package and deliver your ideas for greater commercial success.

Position yourself or your key people as the ‘go to’ subject-matter experts in your industry so you stand out from the crowd.

Organisations that succeed have leaders and teams that are inspired by what they do and what their work stands for.

It’s this lit up quality of great leaders that sets them apart. Culture, employee engagement and delivering results are all built on the foundation of an inspired organisation.

Motivation is intrinsic, no-one gives it to you. Inspiration is the invitation to join those who amp up, make a difference and do great things.

The ability to be lit up and light up others is more science than art. You can learn it. It becomes a habit, a choice.

We need to be both inspired and inspiring when we work, live and play.

We know that the growth of social networks is huge, yet business doesn’t quite know what do with them.

The key to creating business from the trend of social networks is to understand them as channels for the attention of your customers.

While many are posting updates on what they ate, and what they are watching on TV, you can start conversations and build a community of people who engage with your business objectives.

Matt has built an international education business that uses social media to build relationships, advance sales conversations and bring alive digital marketing. An offshoot of Thought Leadership Based Marketing, Matt shows in this fabulously practical presentation how you can get your head across the most popular social networks and use them to advance your business agenda. In essence he shows how businesses use the power of insight mobility to start, join and advance commercial conversations.

A ground breaking practical presentation around harnessing the fastest business growth opportunity of our times.
