There is a real difference between promoting yourself and building something that keeps creating opportunities long after you've stopped working on it. Corey Gladwell calls the philosophy behind that gap high agency.
A four time bestselling author and co-founder of Authrs.io and Speakrs.io, Corey joins Sana to talk about personal brand equity, why documenting your work matters more than talking about yourself, and what happens to that equity when a founder eventually leaves the company.
About the Guest:
Corey Gladwell is a four time bestselling author, entrepreneur, and speaker, and the co-founder of Authrs.io and Speakrs.io. His work centers on a philosophy he calls high agency, choosing ownership over excuses and creation over consumption.
Key Takeaways:
- High agency means ownership over your time and choices, not waiting for permission or the perfect moment.
- Personal brand equity isn't about talking about yourself, it's about documenting your work so people can find and trust you.
- If a founder leaves, brand equity built by the whole team doesn't disappear, each person carries their share forward.
- Chasing success without checking your motivation can become a hungry ghost that no amount of success satisfies.
- The easiest way to start is documenting what you're already doing, not creating something entirely new.
