Kenny Hyder presents on how older brands can succeed on social media. He argues that brands should target niche social sites relevant to their audience rather than trying to compete on large sites. By dominating smaller, relevant sites, brands can get better traffic, links, and conversions. Brands should also engage people talking about their niche on Twitter. While it may be desirable to reach the front page of sites like Digg, brands can do this through creative contributions to relevant communities.

Business Embraces Design: Getting a Seat at the Table Is Just the Beginning

Jose Coronado

The impact of design in organizations continues to grow. We see more designers rising to leadership roles in the executive suite, in venture capital and in founding teams. Some would argue that design already has a seat at the table and we should stop talking about it. However, reality shows a different picture as there are thousands of design teams at different levels of influence in their organizations. We need to share our stories and lessons learned so others can avoid our mistakes and leverage what works as they pave their own leadership journeys.

The Eight Business Stories You Need to Tell

Leading Women - How to Close the Leadership Gap

This document discusses barriers that prevent women from achieving leadership roles and proposes solutions.

It includes some timeless principles for transforming your performance based upon the power of language. It's a must read for anyone wanting to take their life or their business to another level.

Leaderslip - Demise of Leaders, Rise of Followers

Anti-Self-Help

This document discusses the concept of talent and success. It summarizes the key ideas from two books: Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell and Talent is Overrated by Geoff Colvin. The document argues that notions of talent are distorted, and that both personal qualities like passion and effort as well as social and environmental factors contribute to success. Things like practice, hidden advantages, extraordinary opportunities, and cultural legacies all play a role. Success is based on an individual's qualities within their social context and nobody achieves success alone.

Becoming You - The Key to Becoming a Leader

Most leadership courses and books fail to produce leaders because they focus on the wrong things. They treat leadership as if it’s a thing to do, a means to an end. Instead, leadership is a side-effect, a by-product of a way of being. In particular, leadership occurs as a result of being fully expressed as a human being in the pursuit of something worthwhile. In this Book Rapper version of Warren Bennis' classic book, On Becoming A Leader we explore the starting point for leadership.
