If thought leadership is something you aspire to, consider hosting your own live-streaming internet radio program/podcast. You’ll find it is a fast track to thought leadership.
Many companies and leaders don’t know that they’re already considered thought leaders in their industry. It happens over time as they assert ideas and provide direction within an industry, while others timidly refrain. Those who lead create products that excel and become a visible part of a forward-thinking message. They write books, take a stand within the industry for issues and against problems, speak, and often unwittingly display their leadership.
