Positioned for Influence
How to Shift from Struggling for Attention to Becoming an Industry Leader
If you’ve been showing up…
posting consistently, and following all the “rules”, but still feel invisible in your industry, you’re not alone. The truth is, visibility alone doesn’t make you a leader—positioning does. In this post, we’ll uncover the key elements of industry leadership and how you can step into your God-given authority with confidence.
Why Positioning is More Powerful Than Visibility
Many entrepreneurs believe success comes from being everywhere. But visibility without authority is just noise. Proverbs 18:16 says, "A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men." True leaders don’t chase attention; they command respect and opportunities.
The Shift from Being Seen to Being Sought After
To establish yourself as an industry leader, you need more than just exposure. You must position yourself strategically. Here’s how:
Decide to Be the Only Choice – Stop marketing yourself as an option. Leaders create new categories where they reign.
Speak with Conviction – Authority is built on certainty. Those who lead don’t hesitate in their messaging.
Own the Room Before It’s Given to You – High-impact leaders carry themselves as if they already belong in the space they’re called to.
The Keys to Becoming an Industry Leader
Perceived Value & Presence: People don’t follow based on visibility; they follow because of how you present yourself.
Magnetic Messaging – If your words don’t shift beliefs, you blend in. Your message must cut through the noise.
Faith-Driven Leadership – Jesus never waited for permission—He spoke with authority, and crowds followed.
Faith Check: Are You Moving Like You Belong?
Many entrepreneurs wait for validation before stepping into leadership. But leaders aren’t chosen—they step forward in faith. Matthew 5:14 reminds us, "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden." Are you claiming your space, or waiting to be discovered?
