Build Authority That Compounds
Michelle Prince, Publisher & Authority Strategist
For nearly two decades, I’ve worked with founders, CEOs, authors, and executives on how to build authority through publishing, positioning, and thought leadership.This page is a central home for my ongoing thinking on how authority is built, how it compounds over time, and how leaders generate a true Return on Authority™ over the course of a career.Here, I share the frameworks and ideas I’ve developed through that work — exploring how credibility is earned, how influence creates leverage, and how authority becomes a durable asset over time.If you’d like to receive my weekly essays and insights on building authority, influence, and long-term legacy, you can subscribe here:
What You'll Find HereAuthority Capital is where I share my long-term thinking on how authority is built and how it becomes an asset over time.This is not a newsletter about marketing, personal branding, or short-term visibility.It’s about:- How credibility is earned, not claimed- How influence creates leverage- Why authority compounds over timeAnd how leaders convert expertise into lasting impactI write for leaders who are thinking beyond the next win — and building something that endures.
The Authority Capital™ FrameworkAt the core of my work is a simple idea:Authority is an asset.
Influence is the currency.
Legacy is the return.Over time, I’ve come to believe that authority is one of the most underutilized assets in a leader’s career.On this platform, I explore:What authority really isHow it’s built deliberatelyHow it compounds across a careerAnd how leaders generate a true Return on Authority over time
