Why should you care about your personal brand?
Your career, and therefore possibly your entire work- life,
depends on it!
• First 7 seconds
– What you look like
– What you sound like
– What you say
• Silent indicators
– Your impact
– Your voicemail
– Your social media sites
– Your visibility
Going back to basics.....
• What exactly is a brand?
• Have you given any thought to what your
personal brand is?
• Do you realise that your most important job
is to market YOU?
Each of us is a CEO - You’re the CEO of You
Be honest – how would you describe your
reputation?
Reputation
Reputation
disastrous
distinct
Reputation
Who’s That?
neutral or dissed
Identifying the Brand of ‘You’
•

•
•
Who is this brand called ‘you’?
Are you memorable?
Why are you different?
What should someone hire you?
Building your personal reputation
How important is a complaint in marketing?
You work for a global telecoms company where the single biggest complaint isn’t that they were slow in
installing telephone or data connections. Or that their prices are too high. Biggest complaint is that when
engineers bend down to install stuff, the crack in their backsides shows. Marketing is in charge of handling
complaints. What would you do?
The mystery of the lost data
You work for software company that collects data and sub-contracts the collection of that data to a courier
company. Courier company runs out of their own courier bags so uses a competitors bag and promptly loses
several thousand records of people’s personal data. People who own the data, hopping mad. Press gets hold of
it. Citizens go crazy. Marketing manages PR. What needs to happen next?
You and 5000 men
You are a woman working with 5000 men in a country that is paternalistic. How do you get things done in this
environment?
Exercise 3:
Your Logo and Strap line
• What are you famous for?
– Draw your logo
– Create your strap line
• Why will we read about you in the news?
Your Personal Coat of Arms
Exercise 2
Using a 4 way shield,
something like the one to
the left, draw what your
family, friends, career and
outside world mean to
you in a single visual to
come up with your
personal coat of arms.
This will capture your
personal values.
It’s more difficult than you
think!
