Overview: CIO’s need to stand out from the crowd and fight irrelevance in the modern world. This workshop is designed to help you make better use of social media to build a profile that not only increases your personal brand but also the brand of your company. The concept of thought leadership has been around for many years, born from the advent of innovative technologies such as LinkedIn. Since its birth a phenomena has emerged centered around us as people and how we are motivated to make decisions and what makes us thought leaders. It has been clearly documented in research from Hubspot, Gartner, McKinsey and Gong.IO that decision makers are progressing more than 70% through their decision making process BEFORE they are willing to speak to company representatives. They are seeking out knowedge from industry experts and leaders with whom they can build trust.
This means that they are identifying with a problem, self-educating, researching and shortlisting from diverse sources of information available online before engaging directly. This causes a challenge to traditional sales and marketing approaches which are firmly focused on the last 30% of the journey, which is why the challenger CIO is vitally important to the future of the organisation as a whole.
The purpose of this is to ensure your personal brand becomes synonymous with the future of the CIO in your industry, become the first port of call for those wishing to challenging the status quo, earn trust and drive impactful innovations that deliver results.
