Today’s guest, Jeff Brown, wears many hats, one of which is being the host of a podcast that has been a tremendous service to those of us who really desire to grow in our leadership. Fortunately for us, he has a new book coming out, Read to Lead: The Simple Habit That Expands Your Influence and Boosts Your Career, which will be released on August 31, 2021.
Listen in as Jeff shares more about his book, his podcast, and leadership strategies, plus he offers many nuggets of information that you are sure to find useful!
For nearly 34 years, Jeff Brown has earned his living behind a microphone; first as an award-winning broadcaster and, more recently, as an award-nominated podcaster, consultant, and speaker.
In 2013, Jeff launched the Read to Lead Podcast, a four-time Best Business Podcast nominee, featuring interviews with today's best business and non-fiction authors including actor and author Alan Alda, Stephen M. R. Covey, Seth Godin, John Maxwell, Liz Wiseman, Gary Vaynerchuk, Simon Sinek, Brian Tracy, Nancy Duarte, and over 300 more.
Jeff has leveraged his experience as a former on-air personality to not only forge a successful path for his own podcast, but also coach and mentor numerous other award-winning and nominated podcasters as well. Additionally, he has worked with several multi-million-dollar businesses on the launch of their podcasts, including two of the largest churches in the US, and has even consulted the US government.
In 2016, Jeff was tapped by the largest university in Tennessee to begin teaching their brand new podcasting course.
Jeff and his work have been featured in Inc., Entrepreneur, and Hubspot, the blogs of Seth Godin, Chris Brogan, Jeff Goins, and Social Media Explorer, as well as publications like The Nashville Business Journal, The Tennessean, and hundreds of other blogs and podcasts.
Jeff currently lives outside Nashville, TN with his wife Annie and their three Dachshunds.
