Wake Up Call: Why personal branding is important and ideas on how to go about it
BCI Webinar
Building a strong personal brand is essential in today’s competitive landscape. It allows you to differentiate yourself from others, establish credibility, and attract the right opportunities, whether for your career or building your business.
In this webinar, David Gilroy will present some thoughts on, and actions you can take, to help build your personal brand.
He will talk about how building his personal brand and that of others in his team has been critical to the success of his business over the last 21 years. Expect a lot of stories about the colour orange!
The session will be particularly useful for anyone who works in sales, who wants to use public speaking in their career or who is scaling their business.

These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.

Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.
