Part 2 Winning Minds and Markets with Thought Leadership WebinarsWebAttract, LLC
Webinars are a top B2B marketing tactic, but rather than simply doing a one-off webinar, you should consider a multi-webinar strategy for ongoing success.
In this 2-part series, I examine emerging and global brands that have developed a winning thought leadership webinar series and then go behind the scenes for a look at the metrics and methods that made them work.
In Part 1, I focus on the "why" of this topic and reveal the benefits of a series over a "1-off" webinar, provide 3 actual case studies of B2B and SMB outcomes, and share best pracites and lessons learned.
In Part 2, I drill down into the "how" by discussing how 2 well known technology companies, (Intel and GE) created Care Innovations, and how they leveraged thought leadership to establish a new category and capture sales leads.
I also cover off on 6 key metrics for delivering predictable outcomes, and close off with some planning tips to pull it all together.

Bloomfield Hills, MI, January 24, 2012 - (PressReleasePoint) - Global HeavyLift Holdings, a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) listed (www.ccr.gov) entity with principal offices in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, is commending Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill's strong recommendation to the FAA that it fast track commercial certification of Boeing's workhorse C-17 Globemaster III strategic/tactical airlifter.
"GHH is exceptionally pleased that the Senator has demonstrated once again her unwavering support for this superlative airlifter, and the viability, if not the urgency, of establishing a U.S./NATO-controlled Heavylift industry based on very modestly modified C-17s -designated BC-17- for commercial use", says Global HeavyLift Holdings Managing Member Myron D. Stokes. "The Senator's actions are all the more notable when one considers the extraordinary efforts put forth by various parties in government and industry, both here and abroad, to kill C-17 by any means necessary."

In my view, these are rather extraordinary postulations, especially the probability of extra-universal black hole gravitational origins, along with expansion beyond Hawking of Quantum Wave theory and the “quantizing” of gravity. The latter may very well lead to a thorough reexamination of our concept of space and time, and that the latter might not be so unidirectional afterall. The potential is breathtaking, as it represents steps forward in proving the existence of subspace, the possibility of concomitant multi-universiality and 5D dimensionality of black holes.
Can time manipulation and Biefeld-Brown suggested electro-gravitics as a spacecraft propulsive methodology be far behind? I think not…

As the latest news travels of another top executive falling from grace -- this time Fritz Henderson from his short-lived position as company president -- it leaves a disturbing possibility. During a conference call discussion of its latest vehicle sales numbers on December 1, the announcement was confirmed that an international search would be made to find the best replacement for Henderson. With the subtle and inexorable movement toward the East that has progressed so far, it\’s apparent a new GM leader likely could come from the ranks of its executive force native to China, making the ownership conscription almost complete. That\’s a main reason for our report.
The story unfolds in flashback with plodding and predictable regularity. The fact that some undoubtedly will feign surprise as it becomes more obvious should be an expected reaction. Having traveled a beaten trail lulled by previous pronouncements of corporate direction can have a numbing, unquestioning effect.
How the present position of GM was set in motion is an exercise in a somewhat greedy corporate strategy flanked by blinders. In a quest for expansion and untapped Asian dollars GM, several decades ago, made the bold move of seeking out a business footprint in that Communist-controlled country.
GM\’s agreement with Beijng Auto to sell core technological and intellectual property right for Saab confirms our contention GM is controlled by the China auto sector. A subsequent decision to kill the brand after Dutch automotive entity Spyker failed to complete the purchase will have, and is having, a chilling effect Sweden's national psyche, unless its government steps in and nationalizes this automotive/aerospace icon immediately.

GAO and Congressionally Dismissed Pentagon Office of Program Analysis and Evaluation (PA&E) Developed 2005 Mobility Capabilities Study (MCS) and 2006 QDR Only Data in Existence; DoD Efforts Against C-17 Described as 'Intellectual' Assault; Reiterates Position No Credible Study Exists to Support DoD Contention That Aircraft in Operation and Ordered Are Sufficient to Meet Existent and Projected Strategic Airlift Needs; Provides Copy of McCaffrey Report Asserting 600+ C-17 Fleet Complement to Meet 21st Century Force Projection Requirements; Issues Statement Concerning Next Generation USAF Tanker Competition
In clear indication of a last minute ramping up of efforts to terminate C-17 production, an amendment was issued on September 29 by those in opposition to the aircraft's continued existence.
"We were in full expectation of this move," says Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member of Global HeavyLift Holdings, LLC, a Florida incorporated, Bloomfield Hills, MI based DLA-listed firm (www.ccr.gov) , "And it is precisely why we restated our position via the 9/28 release.
"Since those opposed to C-17 continue to cite "internal DoD analyses" we ask, respectfully, that they produce same. We are, of course, cognizant of the fact that a certain mythological place of intense heat would be altered by cryogenic intervention before such data were produced. Short story: It does not exist."
It should be noted that while we have the greatest respect for the offices of the SECDEF, SECAF and those to whom they report, we feel it necessary to again invoke the wisdom, past and present, of DoD personnel such as the late VADM Arthur K. Cebrowski, whose vast experience and knowledge cannot be ignored. In this instance, we feel it appropriate to highlight the conclusions of decorated U.S. Army 4-Star General (Ret'd) Barry R. McCaffrey, Adjunct Professor of International Affairs, United States Military Academy (USMA) West Point, as outlined in an "After Action" Report following visits to Nellis and Scott Air Force Bases 14-17 August, 2007."
Submission of this RFP, we believe, demonstrates confidence in the world's premier aircraft builder, the potential of restored financial sector equilibrium within 12-18 months, and the capability of this advanced airplane to take a lead role in the permanent air augmentation of US industrial base global supply chain as outlined in our business plan," said Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member.
Will Forever Change Acquisition, Production and Congressional Approval Process While Restoring Financial Equilibrium
Chicago – 8/26/09. In another addendum to its June 25, May 31, 2009 and 2007/2006 press releases, Global HeavyLift Holdings, LLC, a Florida incorporated and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) listed (www.ccr.gov/) entity with principal offices in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, is clearly indicating that continued Boeing C-17 production is inextricably linked to its business strategies. Principals also believe funding for this superlative airlifter is not the issue; rather, it’s the process.
“Budgetary constraints, with due respect, exist only in the minds of those in the public and private sector who are at best disingenuous in their claims of continuing attempts to rein in spending. A true and viable solution exists that will forever change Department of Defense acquisition processes, and it’s designated Transformational Recapitalization,” says Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member.

A presentation by Global HeavyLift Managing Member Myron D. Stokes at the Jonathan Club, Los Angeles, in May 2007 outlining a comprehensive and long-term strategy for establishing a US/NATO-controlled heavylift industry -- the movement of goods via air too large or outsized to fit in any door of any 747 or similar size freighter -- using commercial/military variants of the Boeing C-17 Globemaster III airlifter. The Heavy and Outsized sector is currently controlled by Russian and Ukraine utilizing commercial versions of the Antonov AN-124 military airlifter
An industry advisory utilizing deconstructuve analytics to describe the market forces, both contrived and benign, that will shape the "green" fuel based propulsion and production technologies currently emerging within the 21st century automotive landscape; a landscape wherein the core players in this arena will be Japan, China and Canada.
In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center Towers, and the inability of First Responders to effect a rescue of any victims above the aircraft impact points, the SKYSCRAPER EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM or IN-S.E.R.T., strategy was crafted with colleagues within academia, industry and government. Formulated with input from key members of the Detroit Fire Department, inclusive of the late General Manager Weylin Gildon, and the Chicago Fire Department, IN-S.E.R.T. was designed as a means to effectively rescue disaster victims trapped in historically inaccessible areas. In this case, the upper floors of a burning high-rise, while using off-the-shelf firefighting technology and modified first response rescue methodologies structured to epitomize operational simplicity. Moreover, it is to serve as a global first response template to be utilized by emergency teams in multiple countries benefitting from strict protocols of cooperation/collaboration.
IN-S.E.R.T. teams, strategically based around the world and equipped with Boeing C-17 Globemasters modestly modified for this mission, would be capable of responding to any emergency, anywhere.
This paper was presented to 18 Argonne National Laboratory scientists and 2 FEMA representatives for review on 18 October, 2001.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.
