Quotes from our Host
“A brand is really an external perception of your leadership style; so how others understand how you are as a leader and what your style is as a leader.”

“A personal leadership brand doesn’t need to be as big as mine, it could be highly specific. So if you’re in a specific category of work right now and you’re connecting with a particular brand that’s important to you, that could work very well for you.”
