Teams will be required to extensively research thought leadership in their selected industry of focus as well as conduct an interview (in person, over the phone, skype/zoom) with at least 2 thought leaders in their industry of focus and glean insights into their approach to persuasion and influence. In order to conduct the interviews, you will need to create questions that will generate conversation to understand the subjects' approach to persuasion and influence. Be sure to upload the questions and subject responses with your work. The team’s work will be documented in Google doc Teams will then summarize these insights into one joint blog post of 500-750 words for publication on LinkedIn that draws from their lessons learned, in-class takeaways, and key industry perspectives per their social capital outreach.
