Thought Leaders Practice Book

Free online to read. Audio version will be available soon!

My name is Matt Church, and for the last few decades, we here at Thought Leaders Business School have been helping clever people like you to be commercially smart. We do so by encouraging you to build and run a Thought Leaders Practice. It's not quite a 'business' or 'job' but rather a third choice, a 'practice'.

The whole approach is described in a book I wrote with some students a decade or so ago: The Thought Leaders Practice.

The Thought Leaders Practice framework is a comprehensive system designed to help experts transform their knowledge into a sustainable, impactful, and profitable practice. By capturing intellectual property, organizing it into meaningful structures, selecting effective delivery modes, positioning it in the market, and executing strategies to maintain engagement, the framework ensures that thought leaders can consistently deliver value while growing their influence.

We would love to send you one if you want a copy.

Join Business School

The annual Business School fee is $24,997 AUD (paid upfront). We get that this is a big commitment and only something we would expect anyone to do with a conversation around timing, goals and fit. This is a commitment as it involves one-on-one sessions with me throughout the year, weekly small group tutorials, attending at least one in-person experience, and much more. You will write a book within these 12 months, as its positioning power is critical to your practice. And don't stress. We help you make all this happen. 

If you can see yourself speaking on stage, signing books, coaching people and delivering extraordinary masterclasses, then you have found your home, your tribe.

If you are ready to join, then we will set up a private suitability call with one of our admissions team members. Don't stress; this step in the process helps us understand your readiness and ensures that you and I feel confident that the time is right for you to take your thought leadership to the world. There is no financial commitment to go through the application process.
