Tune into my impromptu session from You Are the Brand LIVE, held earlier this year in Palm Beach Gardens, FL. I normally do not speak at my own events, but one of our presenters got sick so I ended up doing a 'fireside' chat of sorts and shared a bit of a mix of things including:
- Observations of the expert industry after being in it for ten years
- How podcasting and media as a whole is changing
- Why personal branding is going to be more impactful than ever – and why trust is the real currency, not attention
- The role of generosity and influence in building genuine connections and business success
