FountainBlue’s When She Speaks, Women in Leadership Series

Building and Reinforcing Your Executive Brand

Your brand tells people who you, and what to expect from you whether at work or at home. It helps people decide whether to trust you, and what to trust you about. Effective executives, both women and men, proactively build their brand, to ensure that others think highly of them, and have the confidence that they can execute under specific circumstances, and even in situations where they have little connections and expertise. Indeed, your executive brand can limit or launch your success. This month, our panel of women leaders will talk about what they have done to build and reinforce their executive brand, and how they leverage that brand to build credibility, position themselves and their teams and organizations for success, and strategically manage their career development.

Health Care organizations will have informational tables.

The programs that make up our healthcare safety net have been cut over the last several years and more cuts are expected, while the cost of private insurance keeps climbing.
