Robotics is a fascinating topic. It can be frustrating, too. When I started covering the space nearly 15 years ago, there was a sense that something big was looming, just over the horizon. But roboticists are a pragmatic bunch, offering projects for adoption more than a decade into the future. There were times in the intervening years when it felt like those goal posts were being pushed back.

I have watched so many leaders over the years in my various roles as lead investor, board member, board chair, investor, and advisor. And one thing I have learned from this front-row seat is that leading from the heart is very powerful. A leader can be the most brilliant product person, strategist, entrepreneur, and business builder, but if they cannot get people to follow them, trust them, and care for them, they will not be an effective leader.

Everyone is bullish on planet-forward innovation right now. Our investors share what they think will emerge from the pack. Climate change has never been more prevalent or prominent in our daily lives, from the movies and shows we watch to how we shop and dine to the “once-in-a-lifetime” weather events we experience from coast to coast. But rather than viewing global warming as an insurmountable problem, bold entrepreneurs have galvanized around workable solutions to address its causes.

I sat down with three business leaders last week to interview them about how they handle strategy. I started the session by asking, “Who owns your company’s strategy?” All three replied they did. My experience tells me that is not the best answer. The CEO or leader can and should own the vision of the company’s present and future — where the company is going.

Of course, I knew that B2B campaigns needed to be handled differently than my usual consumer outreach, and I thought I'd made the necessary tweaks. What I didn't realize is that minor tweaks to generalized email marketing tactics aren't enough to create a successful B2B campaign.
