Are You an Influencer, an Expert, or a Thought Leader? with Carol Cox Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking for Women
-
- Entrepreneurship
What’s the difference between an influencer and a thought leader? And what’s the difference between an expert and a thought leader?
Which one you choose will determine the kind of content you create and where (what platforms) you should be spending your time and focus.
Most likely, you’re currently in the expert category (which is great!) and perhaps you want to develop into a thought leader.
There’s a lot of overlap between being an expert and a thought leader that you can leverage - AND there’s a critical difference between the two, which you’ll hear in this episode.
In this episode, I talk about the differences between influencers, experts, and thought leaders, including examples, what they do, platforms, monetization streams, and what their content looks like.
I also talk about WHY it can be hard to shift from expert to thought leader.
