Overview

No matter where you are in your career, it's a good time to think about your professional brand. Your professional brand is who you are and how you show up in your workplace and professional community. Defining your brand can help you better navigate workplace situations, get your name out there in your field, identify what's important to you about your work, and ease career transitions.
