I want to share one of the most useful leadership lessons I picked up from Danny Meyer's Setting the Table: Constant Gentle Pressure.

This lesson is critically important if you don't have "formal" authority but need to bring people together to accomplish an intimidating goal.

I'll unpack the 3 key aspects that I've applied in my own projects and share some practical examples so you can apply them too.

Building an audience of raving fans is a secret advantage to get hired at your dream job or launch your next project. But how do you get started?

As it turns out, there's a simple, proven formula any creator can use to earn the attention of lifelong fans by building things you're passionate about and sharing what you know.

I'll boil down the big ideas you need to succeed in this talk and provide a treasure trove of examples to provide a strong start in your journey to build an audience that lasts.

One primary factor separates new businesses with explosive growth from gut-wrenching failures: Traction. In this episode, I unpack one of the best books I've read on startup marketing with John Mosesman.

## Topics We'll Cover:

- What's the Bullseye Process and why's it different than the alternatives?
- What are the 3 traction and phases and where do most people typically get tripped up?
- What channels are you the MOST biased toward (positively and negatively) and why?
- Why is it so hard to split your time 50/50 between marketing and building (and who's doing this well?)
