…a Myth ~  “People Drive Web2.0, People Will Drive IR 2.0.”

“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” George Bernard Shaw

Investor Relations 3.0 would be no different than traditional IR if the only difference is that information is shared freely by people not companies.

It is a truism that in the traditional world companies determined what to share and with whom and when. It was more about secrecy than accuracy.

Now, at least in theory, people determine what is shared and it is an entirely new paradigm. But.. wrong people sharing the right information would be as detrimental as right information shared at the wrong moment.

Enter headhuntIR.

Res Ipsa Loquitur
deeds speak for themselves

headhuntIR3.0 is about real-time platforms that connect timely information with the decision makers and enable ’tribes’ to collaborate, not compete. There is much more to be gained by working together nurturing accuracy & accountability in corporate governance. When the right people are conveying the right information at the right time, there is little room for opacity and even less for rumor mongers to profiteer without merit. There is nothing of substance to be gained in attempting to nurture relationships with sycophants in relentless pursuit of mediocrity nor with those driven for personal gain above all else.
