Crafting A Personal Brand is a short, hands-on session with an overview about personal branding and interactive time for participants to work in teams to discuss a personal brand strategy for a professional career category. After working out the basic approach to a brand using a set of questions as a guide, the teams share their strategies.
Led by Chris Olson, an expert in developing and managing the brands of libraries, information services and knowledge management groups, this session covers the basic components of a personal brand and provides insights into what works and what doesn't. Chris has been marketing and communicating the value of information services for nearly 30 years with her firm, Chris Olson & Associates. She has a full roster of clients who rely on her abilities, resources and advice to guide their brands successfully. This year Chris has been named a Fellow of SLA in recognition of her contributions to and leadership in the profession.
