4. Nicholas Webb: Author, Speaker, and Futurist<\/h3>\n

5. Dan Pallotta: TED Speaker, Philanthropist, and International Citizen of the Year<\/h3>\n

Dan Pallotta drives innovation for a very different reason: to help the less fortunate around the globe. From fundraisers to philanthropy, charities, and other non-profit organizations, his mission is monumental but simple: make the world a better place, one innovation at a time.<\/p>\n

6. Clayton Christensen: Professor, Author, and Entrepreneur<\/h3>\n

7. Soren Kaplan: Writer, Educator, and Speaker<\/h3>\n

8. Greg Satell: Unconventional Executive and Digital Tonto<\/h3>\n

This regular Forbes contributor might have a checkered past, but only in the way that\u2019s made him an ideal thought leader in today\u2019s business innovation world.

9. Deborah Mills-Scofield: Strategist, Author, and Top Blogger<\/h3>\n
