Learn to communicate your value authentically and craft a compelling elevator pitch.
In this interactive networking event, discover how to authentically communicate your value and stand out for the right opportunities. We'll explore how personal branding isn't about showing off - it's about taking control of your narrative and communicating your unique strengths effectively.
You'll learn how to own and express your core strengths, followed by the all-important art of crafting a natural, compelling elevator pitch in a way that sparks meaningful conversations!
Duration: 60 minutes (includes discussions and practical application).
Optional pre-work: Take a free 10-minute strengths assessment (or bring results from another one you've used).
