Perhaps you’ve heard of “personal branding” and have wondered what it has to do with you. You’re not selling anything, so what would you need a “brand” for anyway, right? Wrong! Whether you are aware of it or not, you have a “personal brand.” The key is to take control of that brand and use it effectively in the development of your career.
“Personal branding” isn’t a logo or a set or catch phrases associated with a product—it is a concept broadly defined and executed. Personal branding informs and influences just about every aspect of your professional life: how you show up to meetings, how you deliver presentations, how you engage with co-workers and how you are perceived by your co-workers, colleagues and clients.
WiE and kWow are pleased to provide members of both of our organizations an hour-long session led by kCura’s own Chief Marketing Officer Lisa Arthur on the fundamentals of personal branding.
Through the exploration of Lisa’s own journey into the creation and projection of her own personal brand, we will define what personal branding is and why it is so important. You will not only learn about Lisa’s approach to defining a personal brand, but you’ll also engage with your fellow participants and share your own challenges and lessons learned in forging your own personal brand. Lisa will also lead a discussion on how to use personal branding to deal with your biggest challenges in the world of eDiscovery, a field that blends and lies at the intersection of two very demanding and highly competitive professions—technology and the law.
We hope you will join us for this unique, participatory event!
Spaces for this event are very limited! All RSVPs must be received no later than March 13th!
