Client: Dr. Gina Anderson
Company: Luma Brighter Learning
Service Used: Thought Leader Blueprint 

Background

Dr. Gina Anderson is not your average founder. She’s a 2x INC 5000 Award-Winning CEO, a Learning Scientist, a 2X #1 Amazon Best-Selling Author, and a Keynote Speaker who has spent over 25 years transforming how people learn and lead.

As the visionary behind Luma Brighter Learning, Dr. Anderson has reimagined learning in high-stakes industries, especially transportation, with innovations like the Luma eNugget® and STEM CITY® platforms. Her work has proven to reduce liability claims and increase retention during the critical onboarding window for new hires. Yet despite her measurable success, she had not fully claimed her public platform as a thought leader shaping the future of learning.

The Challenge

Gina’s accomplishments were extraordinary—but her visibility didn’t match her impact. She needed a strategic push to:

• Establish herself as a top-tier thought leader in her industry.

• Increase visibility around her latest book and innovations.

• Secure earned media that reflected her authority.

• Reach broader audiences outside her core market.
