In this episode, I share 3 types of thought leadership models: personality-driven, research-driven, and mission-driven. 

A lot of times we see someone who we would categorize as a thought leader and think that we can’t do what they do - and you don’t have to be just like them. 

You can see which of these 3 types most closely aligns with who you naturally are. 

Just like your business model influences your customer segments, value proposition, key activities, and channels, your thought leadership model will do the same.

Once you have an understanding of which type of thought leader you are, your goals, your message, your content, and your platforms will be much clearer and easier to implement.
