- “Establishing a leadership brand is similar to that of a corporate brand.”
- “Once you make that decision, to be a leader you need to think about your life overall.”
- “A lot of times leaders fail to get feedback on how others perceive their brand.”
- “A very wise thing for leaders to be aware of is that it’s okay to show vulnerability…it can be a way for leaders to connect in a different way…and can speak volumes for their brand.”
