Virtual ATDBR Membership Meeting: Personal Branding

Your personal brand is your unique combination of experiences and skills that make you stand out from others in the workplace. Developing a personal brand may not be a skill one has listed on a resume, but it is a key skill to master for your career success. According to Karen Goodridge, career coach and owner of KG Consulting Group, the foundation of personal branding is self-awareness, the ability of being aware of and articulating your uniqueness and value. In this presentation, Goodridge will help you identify your uniqueness as a training professional, communicate your value, and build a lasting reputation that helps you stand out in your field.
