NIRI Cincinnati – The CEO as Messenger: Crafting Words That Drive Valuation

Wall Street doesn’t just invest in companies but in the people behind them – and no one shapes conviction, clarity, and confidence more than the CEO. This session explores the high-stakes world of investor messaging through the lens of the CEO’s voice. Whether it’s an earnings call, a shareholder letter, or a media appearance, what the CEO says – and how it’s written – can shift perception.

Boldsquare Managing Partner Dylan Jones has helped the CEOs of global businesses like EMI and Scripps Networks Interactive to use their voice and platform to enhance reputation with investors. We’ll break down what makes investor messaging effective, how to turn complex strategy into simple, compelling language, and the real mechanics of writing for a CEO in a way that serves both their personality and the Street’s expectations.
