First impressions matter!
A great introduction can be a powerful door opener to new opportunities. But there's only a tiny window to turn your introduction into career or business gold. In today’s reality, you have a better shot of engaging with a goldfish than the person next to you.

In this course, you learn how to create an engaging personal brand introduction in 20 words or less, and make a lasting, positive impression.

- Identify key concepts to develop your introduction and personal brand statement.

This course was very insightful and informative. The instructor was effective in communicating the various topic within the course. If there is a next level to this course I would definitely take it. The time allotted for the course was also sufficient. I will recommend this course to others.
The instructor was easy to listen to, concise and had very relevant examples. This course can help anyone who needs to "sell" themselves internally or externally and can help people who want to be able to make positive impressions on others.
