Many companies today strive to be “thought leaders,” but only a select few truly live up to that aspiration. Thought leadership requires a unique point of view, the ability to provide valuable information, and a layered approach to disseminating that information. For the few companies who achieve it, thought leadership is proven to drive long-term and higher-value customer relationships and increase brand affinity and loyalty.
Stacey King Gordon of Suite Seven led a workshop during LoyaltyExpo 2014 in Orlando, Florida. The workshop explored what makes a thought leader, best practices for thought leadership, and how to develop a publishing and content strategy to help companies grow into true thought leaders — helping with everything from navigating internal politics to prioritizing resources.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. • MBAs Remain the Top Choice It is
perceived that certain professional
characteristics are innately present in most
MBA recruits
3. A Look into the Future
• An organization less like an army (hierarchical, focused
on winning) and more like a family/community
(collaborative, focused on well-being of members) than
today's large organizations;
• Better able to deal with complexity
• Has a flexible definition of 'work' that is purposeful and
meaningful to its people;
• Is accessible, inclusive and diverse
• Is responsive to the communities it operates in
• Is self-managed, innovative and entrepreneurial
4. • Generates deep mutual respect and trust in its people;
• Is resilient and agile, and capable of 'acting in the
moment'
• Attracts people skilled at collaboration and inclined to
work collaboratively;
• Has a self-determined, shared set of values;
• Is committed to "not being evil“
• Is amoeba-like (permeable borders, good sensors, able
to change shape when necessary, a strong guiding
nucleus, and replicable;
• Is attuned to and responsive to customer needs (rather
than "trying to sell them something they don't really need
or want");
5. • Accommodates needs and conflicting demands of its
people, using principles of reciprocity;
• Motivates and engages its people;
• Cross-pollinates people, ideas, knowledge, points of
view;
• Is transparent and authentic;
• Is not location-based or location-dependent;
• Uses sustainable, cradle-to-cradle practices, and does
more with less;
• Engages customers and other partners in design,
development and decision-making, to tap into the
wisdom of crowds;
6. • Has rotating leadership, with leaders who see where the
future is going before others do, and inspires others to
act on that vision, and who are able to translate the
complexity around them into simple truths that have
meaning, direction and predictability (rather than
encouraging the cult of leadership and the messiah
complex of many of today's leaders).
• Accommodates and leverages the skills and qualities of
women;
Finds and clears away obstacles that prevent its people
from doing their best
• Learns from nature
• Teaches people to communicate extraordinarily well, and
encourages authentic, powerful conversations;
• Recognizes our responsibility to leave a legacy for our
children, and pays attention to them and learns from
them
7. The foremost traits that corporate recruiters
look for in MBA candidates are:
• Sound communication and interpersonal
skills
• Ability to analyze and strategize
• Leadership skills
8. The realisation, by organizations as well as individuals, that narrow
professional qualifications or functional skills are ultimately not
enough in a business environment where there is a need to take
an integrated and increasingly global view of how a decision in one
sphere impacts on others – precisely what an MBA teaches.
9. • Sea changes in the attitude of business schools themselves, as they
have competed to provide programmes which reflect the needs and
realities of business and industry;
• For instance in giving a multinational dimension to team and group
work and relating the dissertation or project (a key part of almost all
programmes) to the real world.
• Thus part-time and distance-learning students often undertake
projects for and within their own organisation, while full-timers do a
piece of ‘live’ consultancy for a client who is prepared to pay for their
services.
• In both cases the exercise is overseen by a faculty member, so in
effect the client is getting the services of a consultant at a discount
rate.
10. • Companies generally look for candidates who will both
slot comfortably into their system and simultaneously
stand out.
• Fitting in means having the basic qualities needed to
participate well in the system and be accepted as a peer,
rather than as an oddity, by one’s colleagues. If you can
do the work, subscribe to a organisation’s goals and get
on well with the other members, then you will fit in.
• Standing out means bringing something unique to the
organisation, something that distinguishes you from
other members.
