The New Rules: Promote Your Excellence [infographic]
I have recently written a couple of posts about personal branding: How to Keep Your Career Alive and Without Personal Branding Your Career is Dead. When you have a clear idea of what your personal brand is, it’s time to communicate it. Hard work is the foundation of success, but it’s not enough. If you’re going to get the opportunities you want, you need to make your excellent results visible to others. It’s the new rules. Therefore, I’ve made an infographic showing some good tips on self-promoting without looking self-centered.

I like your point that personal branding is not just about the individual but also the teamm they’re part of. I’ve seen blogs and twitter feeds from people I follow that oversll give me a positive picture of their employer. I thunk a strong personal brand brings other benefits from your work as the rich interactions with a wider community bringsmgreater learning opportunities.
I agree with you, Amanda. I truly believe that if you are going to succeed, you have to co-operate with others along the way rather than stepping on them. I also think personal and employer branding go hand in hand. Thanks for commenting!
