Permissions Policy

Last Updated: June 22, 2026

At WAYNEW, LLC, we believe ideas are meant to be shared.

Wayne Williams creates content to encourage, equip, and develop leaders, families, teams, organizations, and communities. We are honored when people find value in our books, articles, videos, podcasts, newsletters, coaching resources, and other materials.

We want to make it easy to understand what you may use freely and when we ask that you contact us first.

Thank you for helping us protect the integrity of the work while extending its reach and impact.

You May Use Our Content Without Permission

You are welcome to do any of the following without requesting permission from us.

Share Links

You may link to any article, podcast episode, video, resource, newsletter, or public page on our websites.

Quote Short Excerpts

You may quote up to 100 words from our publicly available content provided that:

Proper attribution is given to Wayne Williams or WAYNEW, LLC.
A link to the original source is included whenever possible.
The quotation does not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or partnership.

For these uses, we ask that you include the following attribution whenever reasonably practical:

Limited Non-Commercial Reproduction

You may reproduce reasonable portions of publicly available content for non-commercial educational purposes, provided attribution is included and the content is not modified in a way that changes its meaning or intent.

Uses That Require Permission

While we strive to be generous with our content, certain uses require our written permission.

Republishing Entire Works

We do not permit the republication of entire articles, newsletters, podcast transcripts, videos, or other substantial portions of our content without permission.

One reason for this is that search engines often penalize duplicate content, making it difficult for readers to find the original source. Republishing content in full can unintentionally reduce the visibility and reach of the original work.

Commercial Use

Permission is required before:

Selling our content
Licensing our content
Including our content in paid courses, memberships, certifications, coaching programs, or training programs
Using our content in products or services offered for sale
Reproducing our content for commercial gain

Permission is required before reproducing, adapting, licensing, distributing, or incorporating proprietary materials into another product, service, program, certification, or curriculum.

Examples may include:

Facilitator guides
Workbooks
Presentation materials
Digital resources
Bonus materials

Books and Paid Products

Permission is required before reproducing substantial portions of:

Books
Audiobooks
eBooks
Workbooks
Digital downloads
Coaching materials
Course materials
Paid resources

Translation Rights

We appreciate the desire to make this content available to additional audiences and languages. However, we generally do not permit translation and republication of our content without written permission.

This policy exists because we want to ensure that translations accurately reflect the meaning, context, and intent of the original work and do not unintentionally misrepresent the content.

If you are interested in discussing translation rights, please contact us.

Guest Contributors

From time to time, our websites, podcasts, events, or publications may feature content created by guest contributors, interview guests, publishers, or other third parties.

Unless otherwise indicated, those contributors retain ownership of their respective content. Permission requests regarding such content should be directed to the original creator.

Intellectual Property Ownership

All content, frameworks, tools, assessments, worksheets, graphics, videos, audio recordings, presentations, articles, books, digital downloads, coaching resources, and related materials are owned by or licensed to WAYNEW, LLC unless otherwise indicated.

Nothing in this policy transfers ownership of any intellectual property rights.

Questions and Special Requests

If your intended use is not clearly addressed here, please ask. We genuinely want to help people use these resources in meaningful ways, and many requests can be approved with a simple conversation.
