In this episode of the FiredUp! podcast, the Firebrand team discusses the essential steps it takes to become a thought leader, the various forms of thought leadership content you can create, and practical tips to implement your own thought leadership strategy.

Morgan, Chris, and Ian discuss:

  • When choosing the right thought leader, you should look beyond job titles to find team members with deep industry knowledge who are driving innovation.
  • Thought leaders must create a differentiated, provocative perspective that stands out from generic industry commentary.
  • A comprehensive thought leadership campaign expands across many channels, beyond the bylines.
  • Overcoming the common mistakes startups make when establishing their thought leadership programs.

Thought leadership isn’t about selling– its about driving meaningful change in your industry. Start small, stay authentic, and consistently share your unique perspective. Your breakthrough moment is just one compelling idea away.
