You're navigating different thought leadership styles. How do you stay true to yourself while adapting?
The key is being 💯 yourself while using your unique insights to stand out. People connect with real stories, not polished or filtered versions of you. Thought leadership isn’t a type of content, it’s an approach. It’s about tapping into the knowledge you and your team have earned over the years—the things that can’t be Googled or generated by AI. These are the insights that build trust and make people listen. Share those stories, and you’ll naturally start standing out as a leader. Bottom line: stay real, share what you know, and keep things moving and let the compounding interest work for you. Keep the momentum moving. Never take your foot of the gas.

OTT is Creating New Challenges and Opportunities for TV Networks
Zemoga
They say history tends to repeat itself and just like what it did to music, digital has completely transformed the TV industry. But rather than heed the warning signs, listen to frustrated consumers or embrace new models enabled by technology, TV networks were more concerned with negotiating favorable affiliate contracts, not upsetting the MVPDs (multichannel video programming distributors) such as Comcast or Charter, and preserving the status quo. It was comfortable. It was how business has…
