WHAT IS IT ?
Your personal brand is your “Unique Promise of Value”. It is your vision of who you are, what you can do, bring and deliver. It is what distinguishes you from your peers, making you unique and memorable.
Personal Branding brings together the techniques that make it possible to differentiate yourself, to identify and promote your Personal Brand in order to stand out in your professional environment, to manage your career and projects. By following the different stages of a Personal Branding program, you will get to know yourself better and thus better communicate what makes you truly unique – your strengths, your values and passions, your journey. This will give the energy and confidence to go for your ambitions, knowing how to differentiate yourself from others.
Personal Branding’s primary goals are to help you to build and nurture your network thanks to a clearer communication of who you are, regardless of the medium, enabling you to stand out from your competitors and peers. It is an approach that becomes essential for anyone who wants to communicate their professional project and expertise, as well as manage their reputation.
Just as businesses grow their brand, employees, executives, consultants and entrepreneurs increasingly feel the need to do the same for themselves. This is due in part to the emergence of new communication tools and technologies.
The Internet has created new requirements, particularly the need to become visible. Even if Net and Personal Branding are not systematically associated, it is essential to know how to control your image on the Web, if you do not want others to do it for you.
An innovative and effective way to build professional and personal projects in accordance with your personality, talents and skills.
Are you:
- Looking for greater career fulfillment and opportunity?

HISTORY OF PERSONAL BRANDING
- Tom Peters first spoke about it in 1997 in an article in “Fast Company”.
- Peter Montoya was then the first to define a method by writing two books on the subject in 2002: “The brand called You” and “The Personal Branding Phenomenon”.
- William Arruda contributed to the development of the phenomenon making the method accessible to Americans through the net. He created the company ReachCC and wrote a book in 2007: “Career Distinction”. He is now recognized as the global leader in Personal Branding and trained most of the successful coaches active in this field worldwide with his “1-2-3 Success” approach.
Juliette Jain is one of them.

Your personal brand is YOUR Promise of Value, the reflection of your true identity.

It is about bringing who you are to what you do and how you do it.
SPECIFIC BENEFITS FOR COMPANIES
- Reinforce your corporate image and culture, and increase your company’s exposure. When employees are representing your company at events, or attend conferences and networking meetings, they are developing skills that can support their own personal growth. They are also getting your business’s name out there and giving it more exposure.
- Develop better talent management and contribute to employee satisfaction. A lack of support for personal development can be a key driver of employee dissatisfaction and their desire to move on.
- Improve customer satisfaction. When your employees are visible in the community or simply viewed as knowledgeable and trustworthy experts in your industry, that positive perception extends to your company. It can bring in new business and help keep existing business. In addition, when your employees have an online presence that you support and encourage – with social media profiles, blogs and other content associated with your business – it extends your marketing reach.
- Develop professional presence of employees and strengthen your team. Giving your employees the opportunity to grow helps support their brand, expands their knowledge and skillsets. This can only be beneficial to you as a company.
