In business, it’s not just about relationships, it’s about personal relationships. But, the question remains, how do you build relationships that are, in fact, personal? It starts with being intentional about your approach, understanding key concepts that help build that approach and building a personal brand that others recognize. This session will start with the 10 most important concepts to understand when building personal relationships. Then it’s on to not just branding, but personal branding. If a brand is a promise wrapped in an experience, a personal brand is your promise wrapped in how you develop and deliver your meaning, make up and message. The bottom line is if you want a better outcome, you must have a better conversation with yourself (mindset), your team (strategy) and the marketplace (execution). Get ready to cover all three!
