Nick Webb - One Step Ahead: How to Dominate Your Market with Innovation Leadership

SIMPLE brand With Matt Lyles

In this week’s episode of the SIMPLE brand podcast, I talk with Nick Webb, author of One Step Ahead: How To Dominate Your Market With Innovation Leadership!

Nick is a world-renowned Strategist, Futurist, Bestselling Author, and one of the top keynote speakers in the world.

Nick was on the SIMPLE brand podcast back in episode 74 talking about What Customers Hate.

This time he’s back to talk about lessons from his latest book - One Step Ahead: How To Dominate Your Market With Innovation Leadership.

In today’s hypercompetitive environment, the difference between winning and losing really isn’t that big of a gap. It’s actually pretty small. It’s like a race, where the fastest runner who crosses the finish line can be just One Step Ahead.

Some of the topics we discuss include:

• How to stay one step ahead in your leadership
• Why your individual leadership is important in setting your team’s pace
• Why surveys and promoter scores are worth very little
• The correlation between a brand’s Glassdoor ratings and Yelp and Google ratings
• The three things your employees need from you and your organization
• Taking action from employee feedback builds your credibility
• Any customer experience initiative must be tied with an employee experience initiative
• The four behaviors that help leaders stay one step ahead
