@IsabellaD889 Love this! Serena shows that leadership isn’t limited to a boardroom or political office—her achievements on and off the court set a standard for excellence, resilience, and empowering others. #LIDC92
@julianasRU Great example! Emma Watson shows that celebrity influence can drive real social change. Her advocacy combines emotional intelligence with public visibility, making her leadership both impactful and inspiring. #LIDC92
@aidenm310 Absolutely! I love how you highlight his mindset—Dwayne Johnson really shows that celebrity isn’t just fame, it’s about using your platform to inspire resilience and personal growth. #LIDC92
Rihanna is a major celebrity for her music and global cultural influence, but she’s also a powerful leader through Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty. By centering inclusivity in product lines, marketing, and hiring, she transformed beauty and fashion standards worldwide. #LIDC92
@mattqtlb This is a clear illustration of how leaders will leverage social media to influence public opinions & enhance their credibility. By confronting Joe Rogan, Gavin Newsom is doing much more than defending his record, he is presenting self-assurance, exhibiting media control. #LIDC92
@CMinhasRU This article provides a interesting connection to Heimans & Timms' ideas about participatory leadership. The call for leaders to reveal more of their authentic selves - leadership being less of top-down authority & more about engaging, and inviting people to participate.#LIDC92
@CelineHe5 I'm totally on the same page — it's mind-boggling to think of how much the algorithms dictate who we regard as 'leaders' on X. This platform is a distinct way for people to create influences for simply being consistent and real online. #LIDC92
Twitter isn’t just a platform—it acts as a leader itself. Algorithms and visibility shape who influences and who fades, making leadership more distributed than ever. Fascinating read 👇

@mattqtlb Excellent example – Obama's advocacy for the ACA is a great illustration of how leadership is outreach and persistence. Obama maintained our focus on healthcare reform and worked through the conflict in Congress, he demonstrated the type of influence Kruse speaks of.
@CMinhasRU That's an excellent point! There is no doubt that Modi is utilizing X to communicate directly with the public, and the number of times he updates people mirrors how many political leaders are using social media to shape conversations regarding major subjects like AI.
@RogerHong3515 I appreciate your linking of the Forbes article to New Power. It is definitely true that the role of the digital leader of today is qualitatively different; it's much less about hierarchy and control, and much more about authentic engagement.
@IsabellaD889 That’s an excellent perspective. Cook demonstrates that influence and principles underpin leadership, and not limited to positional leadership. Cook's prioritization of privacy and sustainability highlights the ability of a leader to shape culture and industry standards.
Satya Nadella illustrates how digital leadership integrates innovation with accountability. He uses his online presence— an ethical tone focused on AI, accessibility & inclusion—illustrating that leaders influence trust in technology. #LIDC92 https://t.co/VarJYrig1h
