DESCRIBED BY FORBES as "One of the leading personal brand strategists, globally" NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING AUTHOR Keith Ferrazzi said “If you want more advice on personal branding, since I dismissed it and said read my book, go talk to Paul” WHAT I DO: As one of the first people in North America speaking on the subject of personal branding over a decade ago, I inspire service professionals, entrepreneurs & Fortune 500 employees to understand the importance of personal branding in their career and business development & take pro-action to be more engaged, successful & happy. WHY IT WORKS: Personal branding allows you to make the direct connection between what you do and who you are, its the ultimate opportunity to be yourself NOT an opportunity to create something you are not. It empowers authenticity. WHY IT MATTERS: The majority of us are actively dis-engaged from what we do. We are struggling to find meaning balanced with success. Personal branding is an approach that gives you the freedom to connect to what is important to you & define the direction that takes you. WHO AM I : Someone who took two attempts to pass my high school equivalent Math exams and my biology teacher had labeled me an idiot. Ironically these subjects were the basis of a corporate career that started in banking and ended in biotech! A regular media resource, my perspectives and rebellious client actions have been featured in Elle, Money, Reuters, Globe and Mail and Wall Street Journal as well as a number of career & personal brand books.
