Enterprise innovation: CxOTalk thought leadership

Every week, CxOTalk brings together prominent executives, authors, and analysts to discuss innovation in enterprise business and technology. Conducted live and unscripted on open video, CxOTalk offers a rich source of thought leadership from the most innovative practitioners and thinkers in the world.

The show adopts an informal style to humanize top enterprise leaders and highlight their wisdom, insight, and personality. Because we conduct the show live, the Twitter audience can interact directly with guests and ask questions unfiltered by bureaucracies, chains of command, or PR flacks. CxOTalk is unique because we strive to make every episode authentic and fun — words not usually associated with the enterprise!

CxOTalk is co-hosted by me and one of the most recognized Chief Marketing Officers in the world, Vala Afshar. Vala created a summary presentation to share guest comments from every CxOTalk guest so far. Show number one aired on March 18 and to date we have completed 36 episodes with almost 50 guests.
