When people think of Brands, usually what comes to mind are companies like Nike®, McDonald’s®, or Kellogg’s®. Personal branding is not a new concept but it is one that deserves some thought. Developing a personal brand gives you an opportunity to invent yourselves to the point that you are recognized for whom you are and what you bring to the table. Success really is often a result of self-packaging. You can distinguish yourself distinctly by developing a personal style and/or bringing awareness to others that makes a statement about what you bring to the table, whether it is knowledge or character, leaving an indelible impression of your value and merit. Personal branding has been successfully applied by people like Donald Trump (you have seen his name on a few buildings, I bet), Colonel Sanders, Oprah, Martha Stewart, Paris Hilton, Whoopi Goldberg, Marlon Brando, Vera Wang, Frank Lloyd Wright, Anne Geddes, Lady Diana, the list goes on and on…. Chances are that you do not know any of these people, and yet you do.
You have a goal for your life. Education is a big part of that but there is more to it than learning subject matter. We are lucky to live in such times where the playing field is laid and we have an opportunity to develop a recognizable personal brand if we choose. Doing so can give you a comparable advantage that will catapult your career. Take a serious look at this topic. Are any of you on Facebook®? LinkedIn®? Twitter®? Do you belong to any professional associations?
In Unit 3 you were asked to complete a survey of yourself and to give a survey to a two others to complete with you in mind. You should have had time to compare the answers given by others to those you gave for yourself. Use this discussion to discuss what you learned from this activity. Give a brief summary that compares and describes how your participant’s evaluation of your soft skills were the same or different from your own answers. Include possible reasons or explanations of the differences or similarities. Include a summary about whether you are projecting the image you want others to know you by and what kind of changes can you make to ensure that you are developing the personal brand that you desire for yourself.

Have you ever met someone that you instantly did not like? Why do you think that is? What is it about these people that makes me no like them?
Part 3
What I think is interesting is that over time you learn to keep those you work with at arms length. That most people you work with will use whatever you tell them against you the first chance you get. It is the way you get to the top by climbing over those in your way. So when you do this survey you should find the answers very different between family, friends, and coworkers. It is interesting how many of you are getting the same responses form all of these groups.
