Leader Networks is a strategic research and consulting firm that helps clients develop social business strategies and create B2B online communities that deliver tangible results. Our Founder and CEO, Vanessa DiMauro, is one of the foremost social business strategists in the world. Leveraging extensive research findings and applied domain expertise, we work with companies to share best practices, create social strategies, develop sustainable business models, and shape user engagement in ways that help companies extend their business model by launching and growing online communities.
While many organizations are using social media as an extension of their web-site, we realize there is much more at stake: From social CRM, customer intimacy and retention to customer service, product enhancement, new product development driven by real client needs, supply chain management, and a more powerful thought leadership agenda to fuel sales. We can help surface opportunities that enhance key business processes and align with business objectives.
Focused business approach: Working with some of the largest enterprises in the world, Leader Networks specializes in providing social business strategy and operational & technical guidance for organizations seeking to leverage social business and B2B online community best practices.

Best in class offering: We are recognized thought leaders in social business and building B2B online communities. We teach, speak, write and blog relentlessly, and work around the globe in advocating the unique opportunities associated with social business. Most of all, we are pleased that our clients have won many awards for the work we have delivered in partnership with them. Our social assessment, workshop orientation and community roadmap offer a comprehensive approach to defining the business opportunity, designing the social experience, conducting market validation, designing and building the community platform, developing the go-to-market strategy, executing beta and public launch, and growing membership while measuring and managing performance.
