The Leadership Board レビュー 

Bait-and-switch selling. Stay away, and if you are an executive in their "community," you should know how access to you is being sold.

I was approached on LinkedIn by one of their reps under the heading "Potential Partnership." The message said they were looking to work with a company able to support the CHROs, Talent Acquisition leaders and HR Directors in their network. When I asked directly where the opportunity was for my agency, I was told about "pre-qualified 1:1s" with enterprise leaders who had "a live AI talent gap," and that "Across partners, 60-70% of those meetings progress into active opportunities." I asked for an agenda before the call. At no point, in the chat, the invite or the agenda, was it disclosed that this is a paid subscription product.

On the call a different person joined and the "partnership" turned out to be a pitch for me to pay a subscription for introductions. The commercial model was withheld until they had me in the room, despite a direct question about what the opportunity was. That is bait-and-switch selling in my view, and their own website confirms the real product: they openly sell "private sales meetings" with executives to solution providers.

Two things worth flagging. The rep's messages arrived at 5:28 AM UK time, and the director on the call could quote the LinkedIn chat word for word, so the account that messaged me is clearly operated by a team, and I believe that fake Linkedin profiles are being used. This matches an ex-employee account on Glassdoor describing offshore workers running a "high volume of impersonal communication" on LinkedIn, with accounts repeatedly getting flagged and GDPR concerns raised internally.

If you are a CHRO or HR Director in this network: they claim to hold "150+ data points per leader" on you, and they are selling meetings with you through misleading outreach. If you are a vendor, ask for the price and the contract before you take any call.

I love the conversations they curate with small groups of peers in my profession. I also appreciate the introductions to vendors - startups to mature manufactures and service providers - that align with what I am looking for. For virtual conferences these are some of the best.

Yesterday’s session was a great experience, and I’m glad to hear the discussion resonated with others. That kind of feedback really means a lot.
I’ve really enjoyed becoming part of the Strategy Insights community as well. The conversations are always thoughtful, and it’s been a pleasure learning alongside such a strong group.

I’ve found the Strategy insights session very insightful, thought provoking, industry leading and practical in a uselful and actionable way.

The sessions are with fellow peers that I respect and learn from in a positive way, they’re very well facilitated and lead, the discussions are great and it’s a fanastic use of time.

The process in terms of connecting to your relevant topics is easy and helpful, Chantelle has been exemplary in all of my interactions and helpful in ensuring you get the best from the sessions and vendor meetings.

It's very well organised and run, I'd highly recommend this to marketing leaders to have interesting discussions, actionable takeaways and discussions with companies that can help your organisation.

I have now attended Strategy Insights’ Online Marketing Insights Roundtable for three years running, and I continue to find every session incredibly valuable and insightful. As a B2B marketer, one of the biggest benefits is how tailored the discussions are to my specific role and challenges, making the learnings far more relevant, practical and actionable. It is always refreshing to hear from professionals in similar positions across a wide range of industries, as it provides new perspectives on shared challenges and introduces ideas and approaches I may not otherwise have considered. The discussions are engaging, collaborative and genuinely useful. Continuous learning and development are so important in marketing, and Strategy Insights’ roundtables create the perfect environment to expand your knowledge, strengthen your skills, and leave with ideas you can immediately put into practice.

The 1-2-1 vendor meetings organised by Strategy Insights are an incredibly valuable part of the Online Marketing Insights Roundtables. The process is highly tailored, beginning with a detailed questionnaire to understand your specific goals and priorities, followed by a carefully selected shortlist of vendors shared ahead of the event. This ensures every discussion is relevant and worthwhile for both parties. It’s an excellent way to discover new services and solutions that could improve efficiencies and effectiveness within your business. Several of these initial conversations have led to further discussions as we explored potential opportunities to work together.

I've participated in many sessions over the last four years, sometimes as a facilitator and sometimes as a participant. The topics we discussed were always relevant, and the participants were highly motivated and engaged. I am looking forward to the upcoming sessions and to meeting new peers from various industries.

This was my first data Roundtable and the sessions were really valuable —great engagement and strong strategic insights.

Good balance of voices, with space for both challenge and collaboration.

The discussion helped translate high-level strategy into practical considerations.
Strong sense of collaboration, with participants building on each other’s ideas.

well organized, interesting topics, good moderator

I have really enjoyed Strategy Insights/Leadership board discussions over the last many year. The team puts in a l to of effort to coordinate and is flexible to accommodate challenging calendars.

It was a great experience to exchange with other HR Senior Managers and foster my networking.

I’ve been attending Strategy Insights (the prior name for The Leadership Board for quite a few years. The events have consistently been of a high quality with good round table discussions between peers from a range of industry segments, with everyone providing interesting perspectives. The topics are well selected to be a range of current trends and longer term considerations. The approach of allowing delegates to nominate vendors they are interested in speaking to from a range of vendors who also express an interest in the delegates they are interested in meeting with, works well, ensuring that the vendor meetings are relevant and add value.

Great experience and insights from leaders all around the world

Based on the sessions I have attended through Strategy Insights, I have consistently found the content to be of high quality, well delivered, and valuable in building on my existing knowledge. The support provided by the team has been excellent. Overall, these sessions have made a meaningful contribution to my effectiveness in my day-to-day role.

I have been enjoying events from Strategy insights for almost three years. They are well run, excellently organised, and always have good topics and a good mix of delegates to engage with.

I have consistently had great experiences both in participating as a moderator and a participant. Planning is always well thought out so everyone is prepared for a productive discussion. Leonita in particular has been extremely helpful in ensuring a great experience!

It was my third time attending this event and I am incredibly impressed with the quality of discussions, profile of participants and the immaculate planning that goes behind the scenes to make things flow seamlessly on the day of the event. Kudos to the organizers for providing a platform for leaders such as myself and helping to connect with peers across the world. One suggestion could be to include calendar invites rather than agenda documents for this to make even more efficient

I've been doing these leadership boards for a number of years, and my most recent experience connected me with more technologies and like‑minded individuals from around the country.

I will say that this latest experience, where I had the opportunity to facilitate a conversation among my peers, was one of the best opportunities to express how technology needs to move quickly and efficiently within the scope of multiple industries, not just my own. Working with the staff to set up my schedule as well as the facilitated session was excellent. I wouldn't have had it any other way. The partner I used, Leonita, really made it easy and painless.

I would encourage everyone to take advantage of platforms like this. What makes this one unique is that it is tailored to your needs, wants, and desires from an applicability standpoint as well as knowledge‑driven information.
I encourage everyone to do it, even with the time commitment we all have.

Well organized, timed and balanced. Overal 5 out of 5 stars.

The Strategy Insights Marketing Roundtables have been an invaluable source of both insight, and Identifying trusted partners. The programme is always topical, well curated and facilitated by quality operators.

Being able to network and share ideas with my peers, see practical solutions to support my commercial challenges from a curated and relevant set of vendors, and being matched with the right solution providers for my challneges is invaluable.

I always come away with some new ideas, and relevant supplier conversations.

I have attended many technology events with Strategy Insights. I really enjoyed and learned a lot from the round tables and discussions. The event is very well organized, the staff is extremely nice and professional. I also have been able to establish relationships with several vendors, a few of them are now our company's vendors. I strongly recommend their events.
