In today's episode we're learning from Leadership Coaches Nicky Billou and Michael Palmer on how they went from career-refugees in corporate Canada to becoming thought leaders in the business and coaching space. Nicky Billou is a Master NLP Practitioner and the author of the book Finish Line Thinking™: How To Think & Win Like a Champion. He's a former corporate executive and is now a trusted adviser to CEOs and entrepreneurs for optimizing high performance and personal health. Michael Palmer is one of the top strategists and thinkers in the the thought leadership space. He has been helping entrepreneurs exponentially grow their business (and their time off!) for years, with great success. Together Nicky and Michael established the eCircle Academy and they also host The Business of Thought Leadership Podcast (now called The Thought Leader Revolution Podcast) which is all about building your thought leadership around your expertise, your brand and your name -- which is how we all first got to know each other. I featured on episode 53 and after that interview I immediately invited Nicky and Michael on to the Credibility Coach podcast so I could talk to them about what it takes for a professional coach to stand out and grow a strong client-generating personal brand in a crowded market place. In this insightful, motivational and inspiring interview you'll hear about: Nicky and Michael's personal journey What is thought leadership? The different levels of thought leaders The framework for becoming a thought a leader The importance of giving away value for free and so many more value bombs!
