Summer Break Bonus: Dorie Clark on Playing the Long Game

August 25, 2022

I’m taking the month of August off to be with my family, and I hope you’re taking some time to do something amazing and relaxing too.


For the whole month, I’ll be sharing clips from some of my favorite episodes that you’ll enjoy revisiting as well.


Today, I’m replaying a section from my interview with Dorie Clark where we talked about playing the long game and being really intentional about how you build your platform.


What’s exciting about hearing from someone with so much credibility and authority is to understand how much thought and intention went into building that. Which means you can absolutely do it too.


It takes time, but if you stick with it and play the long game, I promise you will see results.


Dorie Clark is an adjunct professor at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and the author of Entrepreneurial You, Reinventing You and Stand Out, which was named the #1 Leadership Book of 2015 by Inc. magazine. A former presidential campaign spokeswoman, the New York Times described her as an “expert at self-reinvention and helping others make changes in their lives.” A frequent contributor to the Harvard Business Review, she consults and speaks for clients including Google, Microsoft, and the World Bank.


Tune into this episode to hear:

  • Why Dorie started intentionally building her platform
  • How she developed her strategy from blog posts on her own website to regular contributor and published author
  • How she was able to produce content at the volume she needed to establish her authority
