Quick — name a female thought leader in your organization or company.
What do I mean by thought leader?
I mean someone who’s a recognized expert in her field. Someone who understands your industry and sector and can communicate her knowledge credibly and powerfully. Someone who’s known in the marketplace of ideas.
Who’s a female thought leader in your company? Let’s shine a spotlight on her — to celebrate her expertise and visibility.
She can be at any level of your organization. She can be in any department, in any country, around the world. Whatever her area of expertise, she uses her voice to share it. She knows her stuff — and she’s not afraid to let people know it.
- Maybe she speaks or moderates panels at conferences (ok, virtually) and other external events.
- Maybe she writes for trade journals, or for the mainstream press.
- Maybe she’s interviewed on podcasts — or even hosts her own.
One thing is sure: Whenever she add her expertise to the public square, she serves as a brand ambassador for your organization. She embodies the values your company wants to be known for. She stands behind your products and services. Her credibility and visibility are priceless.
