Dont Steal the Cheesecake
How Your Digital Reputation Defines Your Personal Brand, and Shapes Your Company Brand
In today’s “everything is online” world, people pass judgement and form opinions about you before ever even meeting. What you post online, text, leave as a voicemail, say or do in front of a public camera, and even email is not limited to private networks. Rather, there’s a good chance that what you do in a digital format is public, searchable, and archived, FOREVER!
This thought provoking, super entertaining, and somewhat scary program will provide you with very practical and easy-to-implement strategies that will help you avoid personal and company embarrassment, manage your reputation, and enhance your personal brand.
