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.

Overview

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.

"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."
David Alston, CMO, Radian6

"This is a book I hope major corporations will put on the recommended reading list for their senior management."
Barry Leggetter, Executive Director, the International Association for Measurement and Evaluation of Communication (AMEC)

"A highly detailed, authoritative examination on the business of influence, a book of the now... a practical study of material which I am sure will prove to be invaluable insight."
Mark Borkowski, Founder and MD, Borkowski
