Riassunto

Media has most definitely evolved, as have the ways in which we contemplate, design, communicate and execute strategy. And rather than technological evolution, we’re plainly in the midst of a technological revolution.

We have no choice then but to reframe marketing and PR in the context of 21st Century technology, 21st Century media and disintermediation, and 21st Century articulation of and appreciation for business strategy.

“Today, every organization is in the influence business. We influence customers to buy from us, employees to work for us, and the media to write about us. Gone are the days when you could be your own island. Now, to be successful, you need to live within the influence ecosystem and that requires a change of mindset. Fortunately, Philip Sheldrake will show you how.”

David Meerman Scott, bestselling author of The New Rules of Marketing & PR and the new hit Real-Time Marketing & PR

"The Business of Influence is a whack on the side of the head for traditional marketers. By focusing on influence, instead of traditional marketing think, it reframes and redefines everything that that a modern marketer does. The Business of Influence should be found, dog-eared and jam-packed with marks in the margins on every successful CMO's desk."
Katie Delahaye Paine, Founder and CEO, KD Paine & Partners, author Measure What Matters

"Philip Sheldrake shares an important vision of the new communications world order. PR and advertising professionals need to sit up and take note. Influence is the future watchword - and the smart companies are already exploring it and switching models."
Robert Phillips, President & CEO EMEA, Edelman

"The Influence Scorecard shares ... principles with the Balanced Scorecard, and applies them to the emergent, cross-disciplinary domain of influence. ...Readers will find helpful the author's syntheses of recent research and writing in the art and science of influence - including insights into social media and web 3.0 developments, chapter summaries, and a glossary. ...Influence - like strategy itself - is a team sport. Influence is everyone's responsibility. This book will help you understand your contribution to that reality."
From the Foreword by Robert L. Howie, Jr., Managing Director, CMO, Palladium Group, Inc., Director, Kaplan Norton Balanced Scorecard Hall of Fame for Executing Strategy

"Readers should embrace this book and let it challenge their beliefs about the future of marketing and business."

"This is a book I hope major corporations will put on the recommended reading list for their senior management."

Dal risvolto di copertina interno

The Business of Influence provides answers to the pressing questions facing everyone in business in this digital age:

• Following the rise and rise of social media, how can we make sense of the noise in our marketplace to help us achieve our objectives and beat our competitors?
• How should the influence processes permeate the organization more systematically and measurably, accruing its practitioners more authority and accountability in the boardroom?
• What big trends must everyone in the business of influence get to grips with?
• Who does this stuff? What traits and skills are demanded of the modern practitioner?

Full of perceptive thought leadership, this book offers a framework to help shape an organization's structural and cultural design. This framework, the Influence Scorecard, builds on the Balanced Scorecard and similar business performance management approaches.
