Advancing credible voices in a world that loudly speculates.
For Experts who bring rigor to every insight.
We’ve evolved traditional communications, marketing, and PR methods to create thought leadership strategies that drive real impact—presenting ideas not just digitally but to the broader world. Because audiences don’t just exist online, they exist in communities.
Transform your research into lasting impact
Our Embedded Influence Model seeds credible ideas and unleashes their impact.
Ideas that shape industries, policies, and public discourse thrive when embedded in the communities that drive real-world change. That’s why we’ve developed the Embedded Influence Model—a new research-backed ¹ approach to outreach that ensures your expertise doesn’t just get seen—it gets adopted, shared, and acted upon.
¹ Drawing on research in knowledge brokerage, we employ an approach that moves beyond one-way dissemination to actively embedding ideas within the communities that shape real-world decisions. Traditional communications often rely on controlled messaging, but research shows that the most influential ideas aren’t just broadcast—they are unleashed. Knowledge spreads most effectively when it is not rigidly held but adapted and adopted by the people who need it most. By translating complex insights into actionable strategies and seeding them within the right networks, we ensure that evidence-based knowledge gains traction organically. This word-of-mouth diffusion effect strengthens credibility, fosters trust, and enables research-backed solutions to take root where they can drive lasting change and real-world application.
-
We identify the communities, stakeholders, and knowledge ecosystems where your ideas can take root. By embedding thought leadership within trusted networks, we ensure your work reaches the right audiences—not just a broad, general one.
-
We craft content that travels—ranging from long-form, high-impact pieces to bite-sized insights designed for organic sharing. This layered strategy ensures your expertise is accessible and engaging across diverse formats.
-
Thought leadership isn’t just about publishing—it’s about participating in key conversations. We position your insights in policy forums, advisory groups, industry events, and professional communities, ensuring they reach the right decision-makers.
-
Audio and video build connection in a way that written content alone cannot. Through podcasts, narrated reports, immersive video experiences, and voice-driven content, we help thought leaders build trust and engage audiences more deeply.
-
The most influential experts don’t just speak to their peers—they shape public discourse, industry decisions, and policy outcomes. We position you for high-profile media, public-facing content, and broader influence beyond academic circles.
“Let’s be real—making complex ideas resonate and drive impact takes more than just an editorial calendar or a few catchy headlines. At De LeCourt, we bring a research-backed approach, multi-disciplinary expertise, and our own experience as researchers to help your ideas take root in the world.
