Peter Winick Debates Mitch Joel On The Art And Business Of Thought Leadership – This Week’s Six Pixels of Separation Podcast

Episode #931 of Six Pixels of Separation – The ThinkersOne Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to

What is a thought leader? What does thought leadership look like? How do you become a thought leader? I’ve spent decades fascinated by people who undertake the job of either creating or building on great ideas (mostly in business). It’s what led me to start ThinkersOne and it’s the same thing that keeps me inspired to show up here – week after week – and have these types of conversations. This week, we’re doing something a little bit different. I reached out to Peter Winick – the founder and CEO of Thought Leadership Leverage and host of the Leveraging Thought Leadership Podcast – and asked him if he would mind leading a conversation on the business of thought leadership. We were both eager to discuss and debate the value of thought leadership, the changing landscape of book publishing, building a personal brand, the power of thought leadership in corporate settings, the role of social proofing and more. We both agree that it’s all about relationship development, balancing vanity metrics and strategic networking, developing thought leadership skills and leveraging thought leadership for business opportunities. We explore the importance of creating mid-tier products, amplifying thought leaders’ voices, and democratizing intellectual property. The conversation delves into building a sustainable thought leadership business, using thought leadership as a business generation strategy, and the real money in thought leadership. While we both might not love the title of “thought leader” we both agree on the value of people who chose the importance of lifelong learning, content creation, and balancing creativity with business strategy as a profession. Enjoy the conversation…
