Being You

Being You teaches you everything you need to know about personal branding. A personal brand tells the world about who you are as a human being personally and professionally. It’s about authenticity and is derived exclusively from your mind, your heart, your values, your passions, and what you believe to be true at the core of your personal and professional self. That’s why it’s unique — because it begins with and is created from you.

Whether you are the leader of an organisation or team, engaged in creative work, in transition and changing your job, searching for a new career, going for a job interview, giving an important speech or presentation, wanting to network more effectively, or lobbying for a public position, this book will provide you with the toolkit to develop a confident personal brand.

Being You shows you how to communicate your business and increase your brand awareness, both face to face and on digital platforms, including a comprehensive social media strategy. It provides practical tips to reach your target audience and land your message, while sharing the secrets of some of the world’s biggest personal brands — from Oprah Winfrey to Roger Federer — on how they grew their audiences and achieved success.

It’s practical, authoritative, inspirational, and illustrated with stories and case studies based on Maggie’s own international work and experience.
