Building a Thought Leadership Personal Brand

There are followers, there are leaders, and then there are thought leaders. Thought leadership is a key differentiator between those brands who are driving the conversation forward versus simply engaging in it. It is a type of content marketing where you invest in the experience, talent and passion within you, your business, from your community, to drive the conversation and answer the biggest questions of your target audience on a particular topic. 

Your personal brand is your promise to deliver to every person you come in contact with. It is your reputation, integrity and what your audience expects of you, whether they are your team, your tribe or your customers. 


Building a strong thought leadership personal brand will set you apart, create more opportunities, and help you stay on top of the innovative trends in your industry. Bobby Umar will share the 3 key aspects of a Thought Leadership Personal Brand and drill deeper into the what and how on one of the key aspects: content creation and generating new ideas.

I have the pleasure of knowing Bobby for a year now and what I know is that he has a passion that I don't even know how to put into words. He loves helping people to connect, that is what he does amazingly well. And what sets him apart from anybody else is the fact that he does it with heart and grace, and he's all in. He's one of the most giving people that I know, and he's also one of the most Master networkers that I know. And this is coming from someone who does it herself with genius. But Bobby is one, who if he's going to show you something, you will leave with so much skill and knowledge and you will immediately be able to see the result from what he does. So I hope you enjoy the program that you sign up and sign in and I wish you all the best.
