“Who I am as a guitarist is defined by
my failure to become Jimi Hendrix.”
– John Mayer

What is Thought Leadership?
“…both thought leadership and content marketing can very effectively build your
awareness and brand, but… true thought leadership is much rarer. Thought leadership
consists of ideas that require attention, that offer guidance or clarity and that can lead
people in unexpected, sometimes contrarian directions (think of Seth Godin). Thought
leadership needs to be educational and ideally provocative; content marketing can
simply be fun or entertaining”1

As Jeff Ernst, principal analyst at Forrester Research puts it:
“Business buyers don’t ‘buy’ your product or service, they ‘buy into’
your perspective and approach to solving their problems.” 1
