Playing the home game version of PodCamp Toronto today. Anxious to follow the few measurement sessions via: #pbcQ20
Your personal brand will be who you are - what represents you - the image and feeling one gets when they think of you. It's not "what your personal brand is" - you determine what that is through your positioning.
Student: How do I know what my personal brand is if I don't know what I want to do? #pbcQ2 Your thoughts?
This afternoon I am at Humber College PR's Personal Brand Camp. I am recording thoughts at table #20 - tag is #pbcQ20
My question: Where do you draw the line between professional & personal online branding? Can you be yourself online? #pbcQ20
I won't be tweeting everything, but will be liveblogging here:
www.scribblelive.com #pbcQ20
@conniecrosby your questions are popping up on the PbcQ2 page
If you would like to contribute your thoughts on this topic, you can tag your tweets #pbcQ20 or send an email to 12439@scribblelive.com
4 students asking the PR person a lot of questions about PR agencies, amt of work and what they do
How do I know what my personal brand is if I don't know what I want to do..tweet ur answers to #pbcQ2 - for Humber PR students
Great question! @RickWolff All my twitter followers are welcome to answer the question. #pbcQ20 students are here live in person discussing
My thought is, You are what you (consistently) tweet. Mean is mean- on or offline. #pbcQ20
Sitting with @JennOuellette at table#2 #pbcQ2
view from table #2 at #pbcQ2
twitpic.comWe now have students at the table, just about to explore the boundaries between personal & professional brands (personas?) #pbcQ20
Jenn - you shouldn't have a developed personal brand bc - go with what u enjoy - don't try to b.s. people who are really well-versed in communications - go with what u are interested in...
My sister @kaitlynndodge is taking part in #pbcQ20 - will be joining her for #ttt with @mitchjoel later on -- should be fun!
Personal brand is not about what u like - it's about who u are. You have a "theme" in terms of what your interests are. Ladder up and try to define who you are at your core. Keep going higher and higher to define who you are.
Don't post things that are not who you are.
I am definitely myself online, but music is a much bigger part of my life than shown in my tweets - most of them library centered #pbcQ20
Hard to separate what you like with what you are.
#pbcQ2 on to our second group, getting some great questions! :)
Be yourself online but also set the boundaries of your personal life #pbcamp2 #pbcq20
Jenn - group 2 - ur personal brand is that ur a student with great training - then u pull together ur other contributions and your personality/background/outside interests...can't separate your online and offline presence. My boss asked to see my Facebook page - it was a tough decision at first - did not want to blend the two. But you can't separate it.
Thank you for your comments, everyone! The students are also interested to know if it is okay to use humour online. How? #pbcQ20
It is ok to use humor online - just remember not to post anything u don't want ur mom to read #pbcQ20
#pbcQ20 Humor is appreciated in any way that doesn´t make others look or feel bad @conniecrosby
Jenn - what u do in ur spare time shows who you are. Do NOT change who you are to fit a job.
Your brand is your core. When applying for jobs, you further explain certain aspects.
Student concern: limiting future opportunities by alienating potential employers with what they post online. #pbcQ20
could also be expanding future opportunities by impressing potential employers with what they post online. #pbcQ20
Student question: is it okay to have different personalities/interests in different places online? #pbcQ20
Jenn - Your personal brand is who you are. If you're a feminist, be one. Don't try hiding it bc b.s. can be detected. Don't want to work for just anyone. It's not just a job - people will be shaping you - they need to find the right fit.
.@conniecrosby I do. Not different personalities but different content about different subjects in different places online. #pbcQ20
Different personalities? No. Different interests? Yes - in different places online? #pbcQ20
Great discussion at Table 20 - drawing the line between personal and professional brand online #pbcQ20
