Soft Power. It’s the concept of influence… not control – and it can shape global perceptions, drive brand loyalty, and create lasting impact. In this episode we learn what soft power really means, now it differs from traditional PR, and how companies can use it to build trust, foster connections, and stand out in a competitive market (or even world order). Through storytelling, cultural identity, and corporate responsibility, discover how your organization—or personal brand—can expand its reach and impact… all done softly.
