Is your personal brand being decided for you?

Published 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

Most people think "personal brand" means LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok.
It doesn’t.

In fact, every one of us has a personal brand.

Inside your company for example, there are people who:

  • trust you on certain topics
  • come to you for advice
  • see you as the “go-to” for some things

That’s your brand.

The real question is:
→ are you shaping it intentionally, or leaving it to chance?

When Miquel asked me how to build a personal brand, I broke it down into 4 simple questions:

  1. What’s your goal?
  2. Who is the audience that matters for that goal?
  3. What do you want them to know about you?
  4. How do you communicate that consistently?

That’s it.

No content strategy needed.
No followers required.
​
Just clarity and repetition.

We went much deeper into how to actually do this (with practical examples) in this conversation: 👇

Have a great weekend!

Sometimes it's imposter syndrome.Sometimes it's being overwhelmed.Sometimes it's fear of taking a risk. In my latest Helicopter Podcast episode, I...

Your CV Doesn’t Matter. Your Network Does.

Hi Reader, People think a better CV will help them get their dream job.It won't. AI has ruined the recruiting industry: People tailor their CVs to match job descriptions perfectly LinkedIn makes applying easier than ever, making the job-seeking game very crowded AI filters candidates before a human even looks at them, leading to strong candidates being eliminated of roles, because others play the game better Recruiters and hiring managers tell me they get thousands of applications within 1-2...

Most Data Professionals Are Preparing for the Wrong Future

Hi Reader, Most data professionals are worried about AI taking their jobs.I think they're asking the wrong question. The real shift isn't that AI can do more work.It's that the people who used to tell us what work to do can increasingly do it themselves. If your value comes from: waiting for requirements building reports on request implementing tickets someone else wrote then that's a problem. The people who will thrive over the next few years are the ones who create direction, not just...
