It is a myth to think that you will be rewarded solely on the basis of your hard work. If you do not brand yourself, someone else will. The stronger your personal brand, the more value you will bring to your employer and/or clients. In today’s world of social networking and job search, it is important that you take
charge of your own brand. It is extremely important in small businesses where the entrepreneur’s brand is often seen as the business brand.
If you are seeking a new job, new position within your existing firm or you just want to have more influence, you need to assess the current status of your brand. Decide whether or not you need to reinforce or change it to support achieving your career and business goals.
