Would you rather lead through expertise or relationship trust? That's the question we discuss with Fathy Shetiah, CEO at 7C Lingo in Episode 381 of Wisdom From Wizards.Fathy makes a great distinction: expertise gets you a seat at the table, but trust is what actually gets things done.For CEOs thinking about writing a book, that matters.Your expertise may convince someone to pick up your book. But your stories, perspective, honesty, and ability to connect are what build trust with the reader.A book shouldn't just say, "Look how smart I am."

Would you rather pioneer a category early or dominate a proven market leader? That's the question we recently discussed with Geoff Rego, CEO at Hushly in Episode 380 of Wisdom From Wizards.Geoff’s answer: be early, but don’t be first.He explains that the first company often wins the press, while the second, third, or fourth may win the market. Why? The pioneer spends years, and plenty of cash, educating everyone about the problem.Meanwhile, the fast follower gets to show up with better execution and fewer expensive lessons.For CEOs, there’s a useful parallel with thought leadership too: you don’t always need to invent a brand-new conversation. Sometimes the smarter move is to enter an important one with a sharper point of view.Check out more such insights in my bestselling business book Wisdom From Wizards.Less than 2% of books achieve bestseller status according to Forbes.

Would you rather meditate daily or workout daily? That's the question we recently discussed with Kristina Gent, CEO at SIX° Connections.Kristina chooses lifting weights.

Sometimes your best ideas show up while lifting something heavier than your manuscript.Find the activity that clears your head, then capture the stories, lessons, and ideas that surface. Those insights could become the foundation of your book.Less than 2% of books achieve bestseller status according to Forbes.
