The very best leaders and managers, at every level, carry a a presence about them. Whether among a small team or an entire organization, that presence can draw people to you. And your role as a leader, of course, is not just to bring people together through your actions and ideas, but to move them toward a common goal or cause. Being a thought leader is a time-tested, effective way of harnessing your expertise, experience, and your networks to influence others, but most companies have no idea how to leverage it. On this episode, BetterManager co-founder Wendy Hanson brings back Denise Brosseau, the founder and CEO of Thought Leadership Lab and best-selling author of “Ready to Be a Thought Leader?,” to discuss how better understanding the dynamics of thought leadership can prove to be a difference-maker for any business. Denise has worked with tens of thousands of leaders and their teams across the globe for over 20 years, helping them to accelerate their journey from leaders to thought leaders. You'll learn the three steps to put you on the road to becoming a successful thought leader: Crafting your brand. Have you differentiated yourself from others with similar backgrounds? Making sure people know what you know. Do people know what your expertise is? Have your defined and clarified that? Developing a unique point of view and perspective of where the world is going.

Denise is an amazing person that I heard in another session of a mutual friend and mentor, Sam Horn. And I loved what Denise had to say so much that I just instinctively knew I needed to bring her to my community so that you too can learn and grow from what Denise has to teach you. And you'll see why! Denise is an award-winning author, thought leadership consultant, and keynote speaker with a long track record of results with an international clientele including Abbott Labs, Deloitte, Cisco, Gracenote, and Roche. She is the CEO of Thought Leadership Lab and an Adjunct Professor at Stanford Business School. Denise is also a best-selling author of Ready to Be a Thought Leader? (Wiley/Jossey-Bass) and has been featured in Fast Company, Forbes, Inc. Magazine, NPR, and the New York Times. She is a frequent keynote and seminar speaker at companies like Intel, Intuit, and Microsoft; leadership conferences including the Indiana and California Governor's Conferences; and college campuses, including Wellesley, Berkeley, and Stanford Business School. A serial entrepreneur, Denise is the co-founder of the prestigious women's start-up launchpad Springboard Enterprises (which has helped women entrepreneurs receive over $10 billion in funding for their businesses), the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs (now Watermark), Invent Your Future Enterprises and the Invent Your Future Conference for Women. As you can see and hear, Denise has walked the talk.    Talking Points: What is a “Thought leader” compared to simply a “Leader”? What are the steps to shift from being a Leader to becoming a Thought Leader? Who are some examples of Thought Leaders through history? What is meant by the “first follower” and why are they so important? Thought Leader vs. Visionary vs. Integrator  Quotes: Thought leadership for me is that being that pebble in the pond, really creating a ripple effect and difference around a topic that matters to you. – Denise Brosseau It's about implementing transformational change and creating a community around a topic area that actually brings others on board to share and shape messages. It's really taking that idea from one to many, which is being a thought leader. –Denise Brosseau How do we get people to pick up our ideas and carry them forward? That's the journey of a thought leader and I don't know about you, but I never learned that in college. – Denise Brosseau All people have the ability to be transformational leaders. Real people can take ideas and make a difference. I think that's what's empowering about this journey, that it isn't for those other people with a secret decoder ring that they were born with. None of that is true. We all have the power to use our voice and use our platform and use our ideas for good. – Denise Brosseau Most of the world is feeling powerless. feeling victimized by life, like they have no control, like life is being done to them, and that they can't make a difference in their own life, let alone anyone else's. However, we all matter and we all have that ability. We don't have to be Nelson Mandela or Mother Teresa or Oprah Winfrey. – Dr. Irene Cop The first person with an idea is often thought of as a bit crazy. – Denise Brosseau One of the skills you have to learn as a thought leader is how to speak to someone who has a different perspective. And one of the main things we need to understand is that, if we ridicule, if we undermine, if we denigrate the other side, you never ever have a chance of changing their mind. You really have to come from love, you have to come from understanding, and you have to come from a willingness to see things from another person's perspective. – Denise Brosseau We tend as leaders to keep pounding our side, to keep saying it loud and clear, and think that people will just get on board. That's not the way to get people to change their minds. It's being open, being curious. Even asking questions. – Denise Brosseau Right now, most people are coming from a place of fear right now. They need certainty, and it's very easy to look for “My way is the right way.”, as the certainty to help with the fear versus understanding that everyone has their reasons. It's not about ‘who talks the loudest wins'. – Dr. Irene Cop What is it that matters so much to you that you would get up on a Sunday morning for no pay and go work on it? – Denise Brosseau   Learn more about Denise at www.thoughtleadershiplab.com.    Connect with Denise Brosseau Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/denisebrosseau/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/thoughtleadrlab Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Denise-Brosseau/e/B00FGIMBLM%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share   SUBSCRIBE: iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/self-heal-with-dr-irene/id1561226627 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1pxldTJY5MZmneyz8IpSvm Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFTN-EU3umbz_0d0GFwk_Bw Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/selfheal-with-dr-irene TuneIn: https://tunein.com/podcasts/Health--Wellness-Podcasts/Self-Heal-(with-Dr-Irene)-p1421793/ Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cDovL3NlbGZoZWFsaW5nLm1pbmRzaGFyZWNvbGxhYm9yYXRpdmUubGlic3lucHJvLmNvbS9yc3M Deezer: https://www.deezer.com/show/2461592   Connect with us!

I have a special treat for you this week. This will be the first time I’ve had someone back on the show and it’s for a very good reason. My guest is a people expert who inspires organizations and individuals to build real relationships and get real results. Named one of Forbes Top 25 Networking Experts, she is the author of several books including “The Connectors Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact,” which was just released a couple of months ago. For this book, she interviewed over two dozen networking experts, including Marshall Goldsmith, Dorie Clark, Ivan Misner, Susan RoAnn, and yours truly. I feel quite fortunate to be mentioned with this esteemed group - many of whom I’ve interviewed. Connectors think and act a certain way that makes things happen faster, easier, and often with a better result. If you feel like your networking is not translating into results or everyone else seems to be getting ahead even though you are just as smart - then you’ll appreciate the great advice from these connectors.

Together we will design a 12-month Relationship-Based Business Plan that will allow you to stack your successes to create momentum and leverage your limited time.

Neste podcast Angélica Hellish e Marcos Noriega falaram sobre o cineasta Alejandro Jodorowsky. Suas peças de teatro, filmes , quadrinhos ,inspirações, curiosidades. A saga desse homem incrível, exemplo de vida e perseverança para todos nós. Falando sobre o diretor: Alejandro Jodorowsky é um dos artistas precursores do que hoje se conhece como "multimídia": Um homem de inúmeras facetas que desafia e extrapola todos os limites do espiritual na arte. Diretor de cinema e teatro, ator, produtor, compositor, escritor, autor teatral, filósofo, humorista, especialista em tarô e reconhecido mestre dos quadrinhos; enfim, um personagem errante em busca da "iluminação terrestre". Flertou com Buñuel e após encontros com André Breton, escritor e principal teórico do movimento, passou a investir mais na potencialidade onírica da linguagem. No teatro, dirigiu peças de autores como Beckett, lonesco e Strindberg. Em 1970 roda El Topo no México, um faroeste metafisico que causou furor na cena underground, se tornando um verdadeiro cult. A Montanha Sagrada (1973), a obra sobre a busca alquímica da Imortalidade. Condenado ao limbo durante anos, o filme voltou à tona mais tarde pela "descoberta" do cantor pop Marilyn Manson, que utilizou fragmentos da Montanha em seu video The Dop Show (1988) e aderiu, inclusive, aos principios da Psicomagia. Os estudos místicos de Jodorowsky o transformaram numa referência internacional, sobretudo a partir da reconstrução do Tarô de Marselha em 1998, juntamente com o mestre das cartas Philippe Camoin.  Sinopses de seus filmes, trailers e links para download: A Gravata (La Cravate) Trailer [Filme inédito no Brasil] França, 1957 Em 1957, Jodorowsky fez suas primeiras experiências no mundo das imagens em movimento filmando em Paris uma versão muda de um conto de Thomas Mann, sobre uma garota que vende cabeças. O filme, considerado perdido, foi recentemente encontrado na Alemanha. Direção Alejandro Jodorowsky Roteiro Jean Cocteau e Alejandro Jodorowsky Produção Denise Brosseau e Saül Gilbert Elenco Raymond Devos, Marthe Mercure, Jean-Marie Proslier Duração 21minutos Fando e Lis Trailer México, 1968 Poesia lírica e imagens de beleza magnética são as constantes de uma história sobre o não-amor da humanidade, que se oculta mascarado atrás dos vincos doentios da hipocrisia. Banido no México, a carreira única de Alejandro Jodorowsky começa com esta bizarra história de inocência corrompida, amor sadomasoquista e paraíso inatingível. Criada a partir de memórias dispersas de uma peça de Fernando Arrabal, a alucinação sublime de Alejandro mostra o impotente Fando e sua namorada paralítica em busca da cidade encantada de Tar, onde o êxtase espiritual reside. A incrível viagem leva o casal ao caos urbano, desertos escaldantes, montanhas traiçoeiras; suas próprias lembranças e tudo que há de mais característico na obra autoral, provocativa e incendiária de Jodorowsky no início de carreira. Direção Alejandro Jodorowsky Roteiro Fernando Arrabal e Alejandro Jodorowsky Produção Juan López Moctezuma e Roberto Viskin Elenco Sergio Klainer, Diana Mariscal, María Teresa Rivas Duração 93 minutos El Topo Trailer México, 1970. Envolto numa roupagem alegórica e repleto de cifrados simbolismos, o filme narra as andanças de um pistoleiro místico (EI Topo), interpretado pelo próprio Alejandro Jodorowsky, através do deserto do distante Oeste, numa epopéia surrealista na qual se superará em duelos para conseguir atribuir-se o êxito de ser a pistola mais rápida do Oeste. Um encontro cósmico profundamente influenciado pelas "obras pânicas", este filme significou o tiro de saída ao circuito alternativo das Sessões Malditas propulsado pelo distribuidor Bem Barenholtz. Direção e roteiro Alejandro Jodorowsky Produção Juan López Moctezuma, Moshe Rosemberg e Roberto Viskin Elenco Alejandro Jodorowsky, Brontis Jodorowsky, Alfonso Arau, Mara Lorenzio Duração 124 minutos
