    7 Steps To Getting Your Visionary Company Noticed

    CEO.comIn How To Be Seen As a Visionary CEO I covered basic principles on how to channel your inner Seth Godin and get your ideas noticed. Now let’s go a step further and talk about the logistics of getting your ideas noticed. But before we do, remember: The audience won’t come to you. Forget “build it and they will come.” Don’t think the stuff you publish—or that is published about you – on your company website will be enough. It won’t. Instead follow the “find them so they will come” strategy. It’s a time-honored approach; most groundbreaking thinkers built their following by writing for and appearing on news sites, blogs, etc. other than their own. Online is easiest. The following can be applied to a variety of media, but unless you already have a reasonable profile it makes sense to start online: you’ll have greater access to decision-makers, a...

    9 Negotiation Tactics From Famous CEOs

    CEO.comEverything is negotiable. It’s one of those trade secrets every businessperson knows but won’t divulge. Because at the end of the day, those who bargain the best are the ones who come out on top. Learning to play the game to your advantage, to disagree without being disagreeable, is more than just a valuable skill—it’s key to survival. To demonstrate several ways to broker a deal, we’ve rounded up nine stories from famous CEOs at the negotiation table.

    What Educational Disruption Means For Your Company

    CEO.comWith graduation season upon us, it's important to remember that as a manager you must often be a teacher too. A major part of your role is instruction — which means that you need to pay attention to the massive disruption going on in higher education and what it means for company learning. The most visible part of educational disruption is the proliferation of online learning through MOOCs, or massive, open, online courses. These programs, sponsored by elite universities such as Harvard, Stanford, Berkeley, and Wesleyan, have enrolled thousands of students around the world in high-level courses developed by top-notch faculty. And although the dropout rate is high, the business model is uncertain, and learning outcomes are not yet clear, these MOOC's are rapidly evolving new technologies that will certainly change the higher education landscape, and dramatically increase access...

And it takes a lot more than sitting at your computer… while the children are nestled all snug in their beds and visions of thought leadership dance in your head. How do I know? Some of my clients are truly visionaries and leaders in their fields. I know what they’ve done to set themselves apart. In a few cases I’ve helped, but mostly I’ve marveled at their approach, energy and, most importantly, persistence. To help others see you, and by natural extension your company, as visionary, here are a few principles you must embrace: You must start with show, not tell. Everyone has ideas. Ideas are cheap. Talk is even cheaper. We listen to...
