Today it is easy and therefore important to develop your own identity…your own brand. (I wrote a post about personal branding HERE.)

I would not have ever connected the dots between personal branding and a Church. But after reading the article it is exactly the same as the corporate world. Thanks for the retweet as I missed this post the first time around. Mike Very interesting Ron. I would not have ever connected the dots between personal branding and a Church.

When I started my personal branding business almost a decade ago, companies were threatened by the thought of their employees building their brands. Now, the largest part of my business is focused on talent development inside companies. Companies realize that when their employees recognize what makes them exceptional and use that to support the corporate objective, everyone wins. Personal branding is now a part of many (if not most) Fortune 500 companies. Thanks for the excellent post. Best.

The reasons you've outlined are right on target. In surveys, people list professional development high on their list of reasons to stay with their employer (or move to another). Professionals in every field, ministry and for-profit, who continually sharpen their skills, get noticed. Their brand equity is high. Organizations are lucky to retain professionals of such caliber. Thanks for speaking to this issue, as a person in a C-level role. Hope many other leaders see this and encourage growth for their folks (rather than squelching opportunity, based on fear). .-= Cheryl Smith´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.culturesmithconsulting.com/friend-vs-client-the-facebook-fan-page-challenge/" rel="nofollow">Friend Vs.
