Welcome to Upward with Outfront — where bold ideas gain momentum.

This edition is all about executive branding and the evolving tools leaders need to amplify their voice with clarity and credibility. We’ll also unpack the vulnerability in being visible, and how aligning your brand to the way you think can unlock your edge.

Onward and upward!

Executive Branding Is Not About You. It’s About What You Make Possible.

We don’t brand people. We build clarity around leadership. Because when your voice reflects your vision, opportunities don’t just open — they accelerate.

Most executive branding conversations start in the wrong place — with surface-level polish and LinkedIn bios. But the real question isn’t “How do you look?” It’s “What do you signal?” In an environment where decisions are made before the meeting even begins, your presence — digital, verbal, visual — becomes a strategic asset. Or a silent liability.

Outfront’s Executive BrandOS is a strategic brand-building system for leaders who want their voice to drive visibility, influence, and impact. It equips executives with clarity, content, and consistency to lead with purpose across channels. At the center is a custom Executive BrandGPT (thats right, we’re building GPTs for you), a personalized AI trained on your voice, message, and goals to generate content that sounds like you, at your best. You’ll use it to draft LinkedIn posts, speeches, op-eds, emails, and more, with speed and consistency.

The Power of Being Seen

Women don’t avoid visibility because they’re unsure of their value. They avoid it because they’ve learned — often painfully — what visibility costs.

And many men aren’t hiding, either. They’re being careful. Because in a high-stakes game, the spotlight is a double-edged sword.

We’ve built brands for leaders across the spectrum — bold, quiet, public-facing, behind-the-scenes. And what we’ve learned is this: Visibility isn’t a personality trait. It’s a power you get to use — once you’ve given yourself permission.

→ Explore the real barrier to executive branding: fear, and how to move through it.

You’re Not Just a Leader. You’re a Thinker. And That Matters.

How you think shapes how you lead. Yet most leadership advice ignores this truth — forcing Explorers to act like Experts, and Synthesizers to play solo. At Outfront, we’ve helped CEOs, founders, and change-makers uncover their cognitive edge — and align their brand to it.

When you know how you think, you know how to show up. In a room. On a stage. In a pitch. And most importantly — in the story your brand tells about your value.

→ Discover the 3 leadership thinking styles — and which one you are.
