So imagine this: You've built a successful consulting practice, but now you're trapped in the endless cycle of competing on expertise alone. So here's the uncomfortable truth - being right isn't enough anymore. Today's guest on the podcast, Alex Smith, pioneered a radically different approach to strategy that helped him build an 85,000 person strong following and transformed his business. What he reveals will challenge everything you believe about standing out in a crowded marketplace. The best part, it's not about working harder, it's about thinking differently.

In this episode, you're going to learn why being different matters more than being right, how to create a business without competitors - yes, it is actually possible - and the counterintuitive approach to strategy that actually works for smaller firms. That's right, strategy is not only for bigger firms. I think you're going to enjoy this one. Dig in.
