Message from the Speaker:
You may have heard people say they are working on creating their "personal brand." Of course, you don’t really “create” a personal brand. You already have one! To prove this, simply Google your name followed by your home town. If you have a Facebook page or LinkedIn profile your name probably comes up on the first page. Perhaps you are listed in the phone book. Maybe you have recently been mentioned in a local news article. All of these things are part of your personal brand. It’s already out there and you can’t do anything about it. What you CAN do is manage your personal brand so what people see about you is what you WANT them to see.

Personal branding was popularized by an article by Tom Peters first published in Fast Company Magazine (”A Brand Called You") over 10 years ago. He starts out the article by writing, “Regardless of age, regardless of position, regardless of the business we happen to be in, all of us need to understand the importance of branding. We are CEOs of our own companies: Me Inc. To be in business today, our most important job is to be head marketer for the brand called You.”

In her highly interactive and productive workshop, our speaker, Dr. Andrea Zintz, will address the following:
• What is a Personal Brand? — understand the critical importance of personal branding.
• Default Brand—an honest evaluation of how others perceive you. Examine how this may be different from how you would like to be perceived.
• Discover your distinct contribution, your unique value and talent.
• Personal Brand Commitment—what would you like to be known for? How this is the foundation for managing your brand.

WHAT: Creating and expanding existing Wikipedia pages about Princeton’s presidents,
notable campus architecture, and other Princetoniana. Participants will set up individual
Wikipedia accounts, learn about the Wikipedian principles of neutrality and the structure
of online encyclopedia articles, and then apply this knowledge to create Wikipedia
articles.
