Frequently Asked Questions

 

What specific criteria were used to select the top 50 thought leaders and influencers? 

The Thinkers360 thought leadership leaderboards are by participation and everyone is invited to join by signing up at Thinkers360.com. There is no difference in how we calculate the rankings between free and paid members.

The Thinkers360 leaderboards are based on member’s personally authored content and experience curated from around the web and added to their Thinkers360 profile, portfolio, and media kit.

Unlike social media leaderboards which can be gamed via the purchase of fake followers, spamming of hashtags, and sharing of third-party content, the Thinkers360 leaderboards are based on member’s real content and accomplishments. Something that’s a true measure of expertise and hard to fake.

For more information, please see our article “Understanding the Thinkers360 Leaderboards”.

Our Methodology

* The Thinkers360 patented algorithm helps to produce leaderboards that look across all thought leader roles and across the quantity and quality of their thought leadership content. It provides a valuable measure of thought leadership content, encourages genuine content creation, incorporates social media influence as one of the measures, and encourages richer profiles and portfolios through gamification.

Of course, no measurement system related to influence or thought leadership is perfect, but the thought leadership scoring system within Thinkers360 is a highly-differentiated approach to help you identify authentic thought leaders – looking far beyond social media – serving as the tip of the spear for your strategic marketing, thought leadership marketing, PR & corporate communications, and analyst and influencer relations objectives.
