You don’t need a meat dress for Thought Leadership – just thoughts
September 15th, 2010
Saw this great post today on Under30CEO about what PR people can learn from the VMAs. I particularly love the part about not being afraid of controversy. Controversial doesn’t equal being negative; having a point of view, which may or may not be contrarian, is a critical component in leadership. A client once asked for a thought leadership program, but was unwilling to voice an opinion. My advice to him: “Being a thought leader requires having thoughts, and sharing them.” In hindsight, that is pretty funny. I guess I won’t have to give that pep talk to Lady Gaga, Cher or the folks at MTV.
