Let's talk about influence!!
from Insurance Town Hosted by Heath Shearon
In this episode of Insurance Town, the Mayor sits down with Brian Ahearn to unpack the difference between social media influence and true leadership influence, while also sharing a meaningful conversation around faith, family, and the responsibility that comes with leading well. Brian reflects on how becoming a grandfather has reshaped how he thinks about legacy, humility, and the kind of influence that truly matters, both at home and in leadership. The conversation also dives into Brian’s new book, Influenced From Above, a business parable that blends leadership principles with faith driven purpose. Together, Brian and the Mayor discuss what it means to be influenced from above in their own lives, leading with empathy, serving others, and aligning values with action. The takeaway is clear: real influence is not about getting people to say yes, but about building trust, relationships, and a legacy that lasts. Key Takeaways Why social media influence is not the same as true leadership How faith and family shape the way leaders influence others Lessons from Influenced From Above on humility and service Why empathy and trust are the foundation of lasting leadership Sponsors Smart Choice – The fastest growing agency network hand down, no fees, higher commissions, lower premium thredhhold Canopy Connect – A one click solution to getting dec pages to quote your prospect and now they have intake platofrm MAV – Ditch the call center and hire MAV, the AI powered text messaging agent to qualify, quote& connect your prospects to your producers
