We have featured an interview with Debra Benton and Kylie Wright-Ford, authors of The Leadership Mind Switch, who talk about the changes leaders should adapt in the new business world to be successful. Another interview with Antonio Garrido, author of Asking Questions The Sandler Way, highlights an innovative approach for salespeople by bridging the gap between a salesperson and a prospect.

Several experts from the industry such as Vishal Gupta, IIM Ahmedabad; Hitesh Jain, WITS Interactive; and Suresh Lulla, Qimpro Consultants Private Limited lay emphasis on various factors related to their respective industries.
In our regular sections, we have an exclusive interview with Managing Director of Woodland Worldwide, Harkirat Singh who throws light on building a deeper understanding of customers’ needs and wants through innovative methods. Ian Lamont, author of Lean Media, gives us suggestions on ways to create a new framework to help professionals captivate the audience while Morgen Witzel, The University Of Exeter Business School, talks about how social media has created a major impact on consumer segments and marketing strategy.
Change Your Game
“When the environment changes dramatically, which it has and will continue to do as the fourth revolution unfolds, actions and thoughts need to adjust similarly.

It is a jolt to the way you think and act.” Debra Benton and Kylie Wright-Ford chalk out a game plan for becoming an effective future-proof leader.

In the book Brand Together, the authors elaborate on the need for companies to involve employees, clients, and customers in the process of co-creation and innovation, to enable a brand to succeed. Companies, the world over, have started understanding the importance of ‘co-creation’ as an act of engaging with all stakeholders and shaping collective thinking into business ideas.
