Thank you for the informative post Julie, I am highly interested in Thought Leadership and have been looking for articles on this. I feel that this is the way forward for employment in the future. I mean there are already several companies taking this on such as Vodafone as seen here – http://www.vodafone.co.uk/business/perspective/ which maybe of some interest to some people who are also interested by this.
