Most of the “thought leadership” you read nowadays is trash. Just open up LinkedIn if you need a reminder.

If you want to command respect, you need to put forward original and challenging ideas. Writing thought-provoking LinkedIn posts and publishing op-eds in top media outlets demonstrates you can add something meaningful to the conversation.

I got you.

Drawing on my experience as a journalist, I’ll help you develop thought leadership audiences are eager to engage with.

Elevate your thought leadership with a fractional editor-in-chief.

I built and edited the opinion section at Fortune. I’ve evaluated thousands of op-ed pitches.

I know what works.

I apply my journalistic knowledge to help companies build robust and respected thought leadership programs.

I’m your editor before the editor.

If you’ve struggled with thought leadership in the past, you’re far from alone.

Many agencies claim to specialize in opinion writing and narrative formation, but they fail to find ideas that stand out. When they inevitably fail, they blame the media landscape or timing or some other lame excuse.

But it’s not impossible to become a valued thought leader. You just need an editor-in-chief of your own.

I built the opinion section at Fortune magazine. Since then, I’ve been helping leaders separate themselves with compelling thought leadership.
