Event:
Communications guru Tom Proietti will be presenting on Personal Branding
BRANDING YOURSELF -- IF YOU DON'T, SOME ELSE WILL
Most of us leave branding to our marketing staffs or to the blizzard of brands in the corporate world. Actually, we, ourselves, are personal brands. Most of us don't realize that and those who do grossly underestimate the value and importance of our own brand. This workshop will assist you in identifying and developing your personal brand. You just may be the next Oprah or Lady Gaga and not even know it.
