Understanding my life's work continues to be a work in progress. Just when I think I have a handle on my work, I see a new wrinkle.
Lately, I've been pondering and embracing this idea:
"Everyone has a story to tell…and a gift to give."
It's what I used as an icebreaker at my recent dinner in Chicago. And it's what I've been focusing on with my work with coaching clients–helping them tell their story online and identify their "genius zone". (More on the phrase, "genius zone" in an upcoming post.) Photo by jkirkhart35
The latest opportunity: a talk on Thurs, Aug 2, on something I call "brand story".
Here are the details. If you are in the Denver/Boulder area, I hope you can join me:
What: Your Brand in Demand: Standing Out in a Competitive Marketplace. In this free in-person presentation, you'll learn:
- Why storytelling is the new competitive advantage
- How to shape unique work and life experiences into an authentic story of who you are and the value you deliver
- The two critical components that most people miss when using story to present themselves
When: Thurs, August 2, 8am
Where: 4755 Walnut Street, Boulder, CO. Unlike many events these days, this one is completely in person. There is no virtual component. In other words, you need to show up, in person, to participate!
RSVP: To register, click here. This talk is sponsored by the Boulder Area Human Resources Association. When you register, please indicate that you are attending as my guest.
If you can't make the presentation but are interested in the topic, please enjoy an article that I wrote for Next Avenue, a PBS site, "How to Use LinkedIn to Promote Your Personal Brand".
