Do you find that you feel more energised when you’re alone or with a select few, over an office full of people? Do you tend to wait until you are asked to speak up before you offer your opinion?
In a loud and noisy world, it can be difficult to get your voice heard, especially when there are many others ready to speak out first. Speaking up and talking about yourself does not come naturally to everyone – least of all the introverts among us.
In this masterclass, the personal branding consultant Richard Etienne will teach you the practical ways you can become more confident and self-assured, and how to promote yourself both on- and offline.
Richard will reveal the secrets to developing a strong personal brand that shows who you really are: what is interesting about you, why you’re unique, and what you have to offer. You will also learn how to nurture your personal and professional career growth, including how to find a mentor and what it means to network with confidence and purpose.
Lastly, you will learn successful interview techniques to help you communicate your key skills and expertise in a way that inspires and allows others to see the real you.
