327: From Expert to Thought Leader: 3 Key Strategies You Need Now to Set Yourself Apart in Our New AI-Driven World with Carol Cox

327: From Expert to Thought Leader: 3 Key Strategies You Need Now to Set Yourself Apart in Our New AI-Driven World with Carol Cox

If I take a look at your slide deck or presentation outline and I can’t tell that the content is yours (vs. another speaker on your topic), you’re in danger of being a commodity speaker.

Commodity speakers are undifferentiated and interchangeable.

It will be harder for you to attract higher-profile speaking engagements, raise your speaking fees, and generate quality leads at your presentations.

What you want instead is for your content to position you as a thought leader. You will have a much bigger impact on your audiences and your speaking will be an effective marketing channel and revenue stream in your business.

Now more than ever it's time to escape the expert trap that will keep you undifferentiated and interchangeable with other experts and with the A.I. and instead step into thought leadership.

This is how you’ll stay relevant in the age of A.I. were rapidly entering.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What the expert trap is, why we stay in it, and how it holds us back

  • What being a thought leader truly means

  • 3 key strategies you can use now to step into thought leadership and set yourself apart

  • Examples to inspire you

  • How we work with our clients in our Thought Leader Academy

This is the audio from a live training I did on Crowdcast. You can watch the video and see the slides at https://crowdcast.io/c/syb-speaking-ai.
