Raise the bar: Personal branding

Developing your personal brand is your tipping point for leadership development and advancing your career.

On Wednesday, January 21, we invite you to join SheSays Chicago for PersonalBranding at SOCIALDEVIANT.

Our panelists, featured below, will share insights about how to determine what you’re passionate about and want to be known for (your expertise), how your brand should represent the value you’re consistently able to deliver, and how to manage your brand. Once you create and sustain your personal brand, you’ll gain greater credibility and higher perceived market value, inside your organization and in the industry. You’ll also learn about tools to determine how you stand apart from others and communicate that competitive advantage with clarity and confidence.

We can’t wait to see you on January 21! Until then, be real, authentic and memorable. In other words, own your personal brand.

RSVP today! Join the conversation now and during the event on Twitter with #PersonalBranding.
