There are always going to be other people who do what you do and talk on the same topic.

Have you ever collaborated with someone who’s in your same industry, who does similar work?

It may seem counter-productive to do this because they’re kind of competitors, after all.

But what if you could change your perspective on this?

Having a thought partner who’s in the same industry can be very beneficial, which you’ll hear in today’s episode.

My guests are two women who met in our Thought Leader Academy last year and have stayed connected ever since.

They both work in the corporate leadership space, but with different approaches and types of clients.

The three of us talk about:

  • Why they decided to connect and stay in touch
  • What it means to have a thought partner and how it has benefitted them
  • How you can go about finding your own thought partner
  • Having accountability in getting big things done
  • Why they joined the Thought Leader Academy
  • And more!

About My Guests: Tenice Wehmeyer, PCC, founder of Wehmeyer Leadership Coaching, is dedicated to cultivating vulnerability-based trust and courage in leaders for brain-friendly collaboration. Cherie Mylordis is a business transformation expert, leadership coach and speaker.
