DECODE THE LINE OF BUSINESS LEADER — AND LEARN WHAT DRIVES THEIR TECHNOLOGY DECISIONS

Line of Business (LoB) leaders sit at the intersection of strategy, performance, and execution. They are accountable for driving growth, improving margins, and operationalising transformation — often without direct control over every function involved.

When engaging them, the question isn’t just “What does the technology do?”
It’s “How does this make my business unit faster, leaner, and more competitive?”

If you sell into large enterprises, understanding the LoB mindset is critical. This infographic helps you:

• Identify when LoB influence peaks in the buying cycle

• Tailor your messaging to business outcomes, not technical features

• Build credibility through commercial alignment, not capability claims

​

Inside The Anatomy of a Lead: The Line of Business Leader, you’ll discover:

• 9 Stages of Engagement — from recognising need to long-term value realisation

• Information Needs at Each Stage — what LoB leaders look for before, during, and after purchase

• Messaging Triggers — when to move from strategic storytelling to ROI evidence

• Role Dynamics — how the LoB leader’s influence shifts between the CEO, CFO, and functional buyers

• Risk & Reward Perspectives — the criteria that shape whether they champion or challenge investment

​

58% of enterprise tech decisions are influenced — or overruled — by senior business executives.

LoB leaders are the ones translating strategy into measurable outcomes.

If your demand generation efforts don’t connect with their growth and performance agenda early, you’ll be locked out of the conversation by the time procurement begins.
