Brand YOU! Contributed by: Robert (Bob) W. Lucas
No matter whether you work for an organization or foryourself, it is crucial that you spend conscious effortselling or "branding" yourself. Just as professionalmarketers work toward gaining name recognition,building trust and establishing their organization as akey competitor in the workplace, so must you, if youplan to achieve personal and professional success. To effectively promote yourself to others, you must firstmake an assessment of your strengths or things thatyou know or do well. Once you have done this, you willbe able to better identify opportunities in which youcan position yourself for maximum success. A simpleway to accomplish this is to write a list of strongpoints related to your knowledge or performance. Startwith things that people tell you they think you are goodat and then move to areas that you feel confident in orthat you have performed well in the past. With this listin hand, start looking for tasks, jobs, or otheropportunities in which you might use your strengths.
