Is your organization or are some of your staff the “go to” people in your field? Do others look to you for insights, trends, and guidance in a rapidly changing world?  Are you frequently called by the media, and asked to contribute to publications or to speak at events? Or do you wish you were? Thought leaders are experts whose work, knowledge and experience are actively sought out by others – because those people have been introduced to the expert via good marketing. Learn how to take your nonprofit from being an expert to being a well-respected and well-known thought leader. After this session, you will understand:

  • The difference between expertise and thought leadership
  • How to determine if thought leadership is an appropriate strategy for your organization
  • The communications tactics and best practices most often associated with thought leadership
  • How your communications strategy will need to be adjusted to include thought leadership

This 36-minute webinar recording has been pre-approved for 0.5 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credits.

Now part of the 5-part Communications series
