At one time, superior skills, great resources and inside knowledge gave you a competitive advantage; now they are merely prerequisites if you even hope to compete in today's marketplace. Our personal brand--the word or phrase we want others to think of when they think of us--is all that is left to differentiate us from the pack. Because your personal brand is uniquely about you, it will never become a commodity. Statistics overwhelmingly show people buy personalities and ideas long before they buy products or services. The challenge for most professionals is that they lack the discipline necessary to define their personal brands. As a result, their peers select it for them. Unfortunately, the personal brand others select for you will not always be the personal brand you would have selected for yourself. This is where The Personal Branding Group comes in."--Descripción del editor.
