About this event

An interactive introduction to personal branding designed to help us as people professionals develop and exploit our personal brand

This is the first of our three events on personal branding for people professionals. The other two are: Why branding for digital media is important for us as people professionals on 17 June and how to engage, inform and inspire any audience on 24 June. You don’t have to attend all.

As Jeff Bezos says “your brand is what people say about you when you are not in the room.” We as people professionals work across all levels of our organisation and often not at the ‘top table’, externally and when seeking new career opportunities in an increasingly competitive employment market. We need to employ the principles of organisational branding to enhance how we present ourselves and engage in our own workplaces. Jane will share some insights on how to do this in her session.

The session will be of interest to both employed individuals looking to develop their personal brand within their organisation as well as to consultants and / or self-employed people to develop their brand for marketing their business to prospective clients.
