Do you hope to build lasting change and leave a legacy that matters? Perhaps you can achieve that by becoming a thought leader. Thought leaders are recognized for their ideas and their contributions to the world. They share their expertise and engage a community of followers — while enhancing their own reputation in their fields.

In this session, Denise Brosseau, MBA ’93 will share the mindset and skill set that makes a thought leader, including:

  • The typical journey from leader to thought leader
  • Tools and strategies to position yourself as a thought leader and scale your ideas to reach the widest possible audience — online and off
  • How thought leadership can be deployed as a tool for your own career advancement
  • Actions, activities and attitudes you may already have in place, and next steps to increase your influence and impact this year
  • How to avoid pitfalls along the way

The last 15 minutes of the session will give you the option to get together with fellow alums in small groups to talk through your own progress, goals, and next steps.

Take our pre-session survey to submit questions in advance for this interactive event, let us know if you are open to being highlighted during the presentation, and share where you are on your own thought leadership journey.
