I had the chance earlier today to catch up with my good friend Michael Hyatt, chairman of Thomas Nelson Publishers and soon to be best-selling author of his brand new book Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World.

In the short interview below, we chat about the new book, some of the key takeaways, and also what he believes is the one key in building your platform.

Make sure you purchase the book this week and you will also receive some extra digital resources worth over $350, all for free in conjunction with the book purchase. But you have to purchase this week. Check out more of the details here.

I catch up with good friend Michael Hyatt, chairman of Thomas Nelson Publishers, speaker and uber blogger, to talk about his new book Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World.

I read this a few weeks ago from the Daily Meditation of Henri Nouwen & think it is so applicable to leaders.

Often we think that we do not know enough to be able to teach others. We might even become hesitant to tell others what we know, out of fear that we won't have anything left to say when we are asked for more.

This mind-set makes us anxious, secretive, possessive, and self-conscious. But when we have the courage to share generously with others all that we know, whenever they ask for it, we soon discover that we know a lot more than we thought. It is only by giving generously from the well of our knowledge that we discover how deep that well is.

What will you share with others this week?
