Accelerate Your Career through Personal Branding and Marketing Yourself
#WESTbranding

When we use the term “marketing”, most people think of products, services and commodities. How about ourselves – marketing our talents, accomplishments and value – inside our organizations and outside within our profession, industry and community. Are you or your staff members comfortable talking about yourselves in this way? More importantly, are you prepared to talk about yourselves in this way – packaging your talents and accomplishments – showcasing them, leveraging them and presenting your value internally within your organization and externally within your chosen fields & communities? Identifying, creating and articulating one's “personal brand" empowers us to 'own our career' and seize opportunities we aspire to achieve. Personal branding and the ability to market ourselves is an essential ingredient for successful career management. Learn how to create a framework to embrace and develop this core competency.
