Who Are You Anyway?: Define and Communicate Your Value PropositionBranding isn’t just for products or corporations any longer—the principles extend now to individuals. If you aren’t sure who you are, what value you bring to the table or if you simply can’t communicate it clearly and powerfully, you can’t expect others to know either. Our presenters will share their own fascinating, personal stories of re-branding and “reinvention” as well as share practical branding strategies and tips to help you craft and sell your own brand. Session led by Cheri Wilson (SPH '10) & Craig Bambrough |

The Lost Art of Communication: Leveraging Everything from Social Networking to Social MediaHave we lost the true art of communication or have the forms just evolved? From face-to-face interactions and emails to now Twitter and Facebook—what’s the best and smartest way to be heard? Professionally and personally, how do we leverage the advances within technology to fit our needs? The landscape has changed and various options for communicating exist. The art of communication provides many opportunities to not only develop business strategies in the workplace, but it can also help to enhance our own personal brands and build credibility amongst our peers and colleagues.
