About this Event

Join us to hear some great isights on personal branding from Marina Byezhanova.


Why personal branding?

47% of the public’s opinion about a company is accounted for by the reputation of the CEO.

As the Founder-CEO of your business, how much of your time are you investing in growing your reputation and establishing yourself as the thought-leader in your field?

Together, we will discuss the frequently talked about, yet often misconstrued, concept of personal brand building. You will walk away understanding what it is, why it matters, and how to leverage it to become a magnet to prospective clients, employees, and journalists.

This talk is for Entrepreneurs who want to:

  • Audit their personal brands
  • Establish themselves as thought leaders
  • Stand out & position themselves apart from others
  • Build a personal brand that will live beyond the lifecycle of their business
  • Make an impact & inspire others at scale
