“Despite any personal challenges I was facing at the time, Keith and his team at CCC managed to put me at ease from our first call… I knew I was working with a group of specialists that simply get it. Straight away, they understood what I was looking for, what I needed, and how to get started in positioning me for my path. I love the final product, and am amazed by how well it represents me and my story. I highly recommend Keith/CCC’s services for any career transition coaching, resume/LinkedIn development, and personal branding project.”

Your colleague's personal brand isn't connecting with the team. How can you help them make a stronger impact?
A tactful approach to this would start with helping your colleague establish clarity on their individual value proposition within their current role and how it impacts both their teammates’ efforts and the organization’s product quality/service value. Without defining this, they won’t be able to align on their personal brand. Want more insight… reach out to me.

Here's how you can lead a successful digital marketing campaign with confidence.
There’s really no individual element to focus on, but rather a series of items to prioritize. Our friend and partner, Ellen Smolko communicates it best: “competitive strategy,” “product strategy,” “market (place) strategy,” “pricing strategy,” and “promotion strategy.” Essentially, all of the above must be aligned with the messaging and its respective alignment with the audience’s mindset. Marketing is very complex within its simplicity, and no matter how stellar branding looks, sounds, and seems, it’s only as effective as its marketing’s appropriateness.

Here's how you can amplify your personal brand through public speaking.
Develop a narrative that best aligns your brand story with the core priorities of your audience. Even if your experiences don’t directly relate to your audience, your principles may share common ground. Your narrative shouldn’t be linear… after all, there are endless ways to present the same story to maximize engagement.

What do you do if you need to demonstrate your adaptability and flexibility in an interview?
The best way to highlight is to actually define them, particularly by identifying examples of how you’ve used the respective skill(s) (such as “adaptive,” e.g., supported adaptation to a newly onboarded internal system by…) to solve a relevant challenge or address a relevant pain point based on the types of challenges that a prospective interviewer is likely to experience.

Harry, You truly are one of the few that prioritizes making time for others (not merely for self-serving purposes).
