Barry Libert is a regularly featured speaker at industry conferences and business events, specializing in delivering speeches that help audiences understand the value of social technologies and human interaction within the corporate world. He is recognized for his engaging presentation style and extensive knowledge of the newly emerging social enterprise space.
His areas of expertise include the following topics:
The Future of Leadership is Social: A truly new type of leader is emerging—one who embraces change, attacks age-old challenges with bold new solutions, and recognizes that leadership is as much about listening and collaborating with people as it is about making hard decisions. The overwhelmingly positive response to this leadership style is also a reflection of our increasingly social world. In this world, we expect our leaders to be more socially conscious, connected and transparent if they want to gain our support and trust.
The Business Value of Social Technologies: The Web 2.0 evolution has enabled companies to connect in transparent and impactful ways, achieving a greater competitive edge. In order to take full advantage of this movement, companies must embrace open dialogue and fully understand the implications of becoming a more “social” organization. The use of online communities is gaining rapid momentum and is proving to be a must for enterprises looking to engage, innovate and “disrupt.”
More businesses are shifting power to employees in an effort to tap into the collective intelligence from many. For these forward-thinking companies, wisdom, insight, and decision-making no longer lie solely in the hands of the anointed few. By creating a new level of transparency and engagement, community extends the reach and impact of critical HR, marketing, and customer services processes, to facilitate idea sharing, innovation and brand recognition.
The Changing Face of Business: Businesses today are faced with heightened challenges— limited budgets, unknown brands and even stronger competition. The old way of doing things won’t enable us to overcome new hurdles, so businesses need to become agents of change if they want to survive and excel. Changing strategy is one thing, but truly changing the way businesses operate needs to start from the top down, as seen in our most recent Presidential election. People embraced change and that feeling is here to stay. Businesses now have to rise to the same occasion.
