Julie Michelle Morris's Linkedin Analytics

I want you to become a thought leader. To be the face of your brand and market yourself. To stop holding back because of uncertainty and overthinking. To fill your pipeline, to have impact with your one life. Being quiet means being forgotten! And that’s not you! It’s a non-negotiable that you’ll have to market yourself to gain investment and clients, to share your expertise and POV in writing and speaking, and continuously speak to the issues of the day. You'll need to do it on LinkedIn, from the stage, in a board room, in a crisis, from inside a company to grow your revenue and influence. It's clearly my obsession and my work, along with cybersecurity, tech, and AI. A more structured bio: Thought leadership isn’t optional—it’s how you build influence, attract opportunities, and create impact. I founded Persona Media, where I work with founders, executives, and teams to turn their expertise into revenue and authority and DIY Influence, a community where leaders learn to be visible. With 11K+ LinkedIn followers and the How to Thought Leadership podcast, I share strategies on personal branding, content, and audience growth. My work includes building thought leadership programs and demand gen strategies for top brands, with a focus on cybersecurity, tech, and AI. I help leaders show up where it matters—on LinkedIn, on stage, in boardrooms, and in key industry conversations. Through my work, writing, speaking (and in virtually every conversation... just ask my kids), I make thought leadership practical, effective, and aligned with real business outcomes. Here are the three ways I work with folks: → Thought Leadership Community - DIY Influence Join our supportive community of leaders learning the tactics of being visible. DIYInfluence.com → Thought Leadership Guide One-to-one accelerated guidance for founders and executives on storytelling and speaking directly to your audience. Speaking prep, video, podcast, LinkedIn posts, book collaboration. (Founders, skip the marketing and PR. Start here!) → Thought Leadership Program Development I build thought leadership, brand ambassador, and storytelling programs across your executive, marketing, partnerships, and revenue teams, toward achieving your bottom line and impact objectives.
