30 Nov TOP 50 BUSINESS THOUGHT LEADERS, KEYNOTE SPEAKERS & CONSULTANTS FOR HIRE

Posted at 13:41h in Uncategorized by

The world’s Top 50 business thought leaders, keynote speakers and futurist consulting experts are a motley bunch. Any such roster is inevitably comprised of CEOs, independent key opinion leaders, board advisors and more. That said, any given Top 50 business thought leaders list wouldn’t be complete without its fair share of management gurus and futurologist consultants either.

The Visionary Thinker

For example, consider keynote speaker and futurist consultant to 3000 brands Scott Steinberg — Known for his outspoken, forward-looking views on innovation, change, and business trends, he stands out as a consulting expert who offers strategic insights that stretch past the C-suite. As one of the world’s Top 50 business thought leaders, the consultant’s perspective helps executives, entrepreneurs, and organizations anticipate change, adapt, and evolve. By including him in this list, we recognize that leadership ideas can come from outside the traditional corporate hierarchy — from analysts, consultants, and futurists who challenge the status quo.
