There has been an unusual amount of chatter regarding thought leaders in the digital space. Specifically, many want to complain these folks aren't "doers"...
Guillaume Decugis's insight:
Great rant by Marcus Sheridan on why being a doer and a thought leader are not necessarily the same. I totally felt the frustration he described some years ago when, a successful entrepreneur with a great exit behind him, I felt I didn't get any attention easily. I didn't hate thought leaders back then but let's admit it: I was frustrated to see others get some attention that seemed undeserved. But as Sheridan points out, thought leadership has to be earned. How?Not by what you do: it can help but it's not the point nor is it even mandatory. It's by what you say which - in digital times - means what you publish. So stop hating and start publishing!
