Personal brand...you've likely heard or seen the phrase, but may not realize the impact it can have on both your personal life and your professional career. Taking care of your personal brand, and nurturing it can make the difference in getting that next promotion or new job.

My friend Diane Diaz joins me to discuss the impact your personal brand can have on you and why we need to care about how we use social media.
In this episode
What is a personal brand
the 3-C's of personal branding
what your brand says about you
how to "show up" as an expert
what to do if personal and corporate brands don't align
it's A-OK to shift your personal brand as you navigate your career
how an archetype assessment can help you build your brand story
.... and so much more

I had a lot of fun talking with Diane and I hope you'll tune in and see how you can shape your own brand story and be the best brand ambassador for yourself!
