Influentialleadership All enterprises are designed to varying degrees of detail and with varying degrees of success, but it does not mean that they are architected and orchestrated seamlessly. It is important to reimagine the future of the business boldly, but make an objective assessment of the digital readiness carefully.
Initiateinnovativeinfluence Influence is the cognitive ability to understand; communication skill to inspire and persuade, or “can do” attitude to motivate. Regardless of which stage you are at the professional growth cycle, forethoughtful leaders or professionals should continue to learn, innovate or coach to deepen their influence.
InfluentialBoard People tend to make leadership very complex, but in its most simple form, leadership is an influence. With rapid changes and exponential growth of information, the command control style of management is gradually losing its steam. Digital leadership needs to be highly intelligent and influential, to lead through influence, not brute force. The corporate board as one of the top leadership pillars must influence and exemplify progressive leadership and help to shape an ultra-modern digital organization effortlessly.
Influence Nowadays we step into the digital economy with exponential growth of information and abundant knowledge; the world has been interwoven through the internet and the latest technologies, leadership becomes more interdisciplinary, influential and innovative.
Influencing Today we are inextricably linked, in real time and in ways far more imminent than most realize. “IN”fluence is about touching both mind and heart via inspiration and insight. Highly influential leaders or professionals need to genuinely look within their own hearts and minds, inspire, innovate, improve, interact, interpret, exemplify, encourage, learn about the barriers, and be able to overcome them to make a leap.
The “Future of CIO” blog has reached 10 million page views with about 10300+ blog postings in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The content richness is not for its own sake, but to convey the vision and share the wisdom. Blogging is not about writing, but about thinking; it’s not just about WHAT to say, but about WHY to say, and HOW to say it. It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the “hungry minds” and the “deep souls.” It’s the journey to amplify your voice, deepen your digital footprints, and match your way for human progression.
