I had the pleasure of attending an insightful presentation yesterday by Claire Mason and Alison Sharpe from Man Bites Dog, exploring how C-suite decision-makers engage with thought-leadership from their strategic partners. The research reinforced the pivotal role that thought-leadership plays in driving revenue and why it’s a smart growth strategy for forward-thinking brands. With 74% of C-suite leaders always considering thought-leadership when making buying decisions, and 64% recognising it as the most effective way to build brand and reputation, the findings are essential reading for all #communications professionals. You can explore the full report here: https://lnkd.in/eh-yHyAB The session ended with a thought-provoking discussion on the role of AI in the creative process, chaired by James Lloyd, featuring Scott Hamilton and Catherine Qi. The panel delved into the importance of authenticity and why AI, by its very nature, cannot generate truly original ideas - a topic that sparked fascinating conversations. I’d be interested to hear your (human-generated) thoughts on this! Thanks to Winmark, Doris Suchet and Fred Britton for hosting such an engaging session - I’m already looking forward to the next one! #CommunicationsStrategy #ThoughtLeadership #BrandReputation #MarketingInnovation #IntelligentGrowth #StrategicPartnerships #ExecutiveInsights #FutureOfWork #OpenToWork

𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐚 𝐆𝐨𝐬𝐚𝐢 – 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐛𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 At Instinct Innovations, every decision comes down to balance—and no one embodies this better than Priyanka Gosai. As Co-Founder and the head of Product, Finance, and HR, Priyanka brings a level-headed, practical approach to leadership that has been instrumental in shaping 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘵 since its founding in 2015. While Ankit often leads with vision and emotion, Priyanka complements him with logic, focus, and the ability to make the hard but necessary calls. Whether it’s optimizing product strategy, managing finances, or ensuring the team runs like a well-oiled machine, she’s the person who ensures that no detail is overlooked, and no decision is taken lightly. Her approach is clear and direct—focused on outcomes, efficiency, and long-term growth. And let’s be honest, she’s not the type to sugarcoat things or shy away from tough conversations. But that’s exactly what makes her the driving force behind 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘵's ability to stay grounded while reaching new heights. Back in 2015, when 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘵 𝘐𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 was founded, women in leadership weren’t as common a sight as they are today. Priyanka didn’t wait for anyone’s approval—she built her place at the table, taking charge and helping lay the foundation for a company that thrives on innovation, inclusivity, and a little bit of bold decision-making. Priyanka’s journey is a reminder that leadership comes in many forms—and sometimes, what’s needed most is someone who can step back, think critically, and get things done. Here’s to Priyanka—sharp, decisive, and a leader who keeps us all moving forward. 🥂 #MeetTheTeam #WomenInLeadership #InnovationWithLogic #InstinctInnovations

🚀 Spotlight on Dan Slagen, CMO at Tomorrow.io! 🚀 I had a great chat with Dan Slagen, CMO of Tomorrow.io; recognized by TIME Magazine as one of the world's top 100 most influential companies, Dan’s impressive career trajectory—from scaling global go-to-market from early stage to driving a $100M+ ARR—is inspiring.

One standout insight from our conversation is Dan’s emphasis that to excel as a CMO, you must adopt a CEO mindset. As he puts it, “Are you thinking about all the things you own end-to-end like the CEO would?... I need to go with the perspective of what’s happening in the finance team, the sales team, the space team and bake that into a company plan, not just a marketing plan.” Don’t miss Dan’s book Understanding Start-Up CEOs for deeper insights into this approach. 📚 Catch a glimpse of Dan’s CEO mindset in the clip below, and join the AnswerBite community for exclusive access to this chat and more industry leader insights! https://lnkd.in/gcJP-Qv7 Thank you, Dan, for sharing your expertise with us! #TechInnovation #MarketingLeadership #GoToMarketStrategies #IndustryInsights #AIinMarketing #VisionaryLeadership #Tomorrowio #AnswerBiteInsights #CMOSpotlight

Here’s another one of our #SponsorSessions that you will definitely look forward to, from Health Catalyst happening at #HDAA2024, Chapel Hill! “ ‘Success’ in healthcare means continuously improving health, equity, cost, and experience. Achieving this requires visionary leaders, strong organizational culture, and great teams. Leaders play a crucial role in defining, making, and facilitating actions aligned with those choices. Being a visionary leader means being data-driven but doing so can often be elusive. Join us for a compelling fireside chat featuring Dr. Chris De Rienzo, Chief Physician at the American Hospital Association and Jason Jones, Chief Analytics and Data Science Officer at Health Catalyst, as they explore what it takes to achieve and sustain success through analytics from an executive vantage point. This session will offer unique insights from two accomplished leaders who bring diverse perspectives on how to leverage analytics to improve care, reduce cost, and improve the experience of key stakeholders—patients, loved ones, providers, and leaders. Together, they will discuss the multifaceted nature of success in healthcare, addressing key topics such as: Leaders: What has proven effective in generating executive enthusiasm for analytics in the pursuit of success? Culture: How can executives build a culture that (appropriately) celebrates analytics in pursuit of innovation and continuous improvement? Teams: How can we recognize and use disparate strengths to achieve together what seemed daunting alone?” #healthcaredata #healthdata #healthanalytics #AI
