Therefore, if you have promising staff earmarked for accelerated career progression; or you are seeking to enrich your pre-management development program of jobs; your management trainee program or training, then this Professional Personal Branding MasterClass course in Kenya can help.

About personal branding training and the program
To begin with, our Professional Personal branding MasterClass training program begins with a comprehensive Personal Brand Inventory of the select high-potential staff’s personality distinctiveness, that the management values enough to pay for. It is geared toward setting up the participant on the path to accelerated career success; matching inborn personality tendencies to career and managerial success.
Next and without getting too much into the abc’s, and do’s and don’ts of personal branding, suffice it to say, that a brand is a promise, as expert marketers tell us. A brand speaks before it has spoken, for its reputation precedes it. In addition, just as with animal branding, arguably, the history of branding, a brand is an identify; a mark of ownership. Such is the power and meaning of a brand. Fortunately, unlike animal branding which hurts, personal branding doesn’t do so humans,
Further, a brand is how consumers of it have it positioned in their mind; and that can be largely shaped by what, the product (person in this case) projects. Just as with executive presence, this is the unique value proposition of personal branding; that is, strategic self-marketing. This is why good personal branding is essential to career success, and its advantages are plain to see. As with a business or product brand, living positive personal branding dramatically increases the things you can do; conversely, negative or bad personal branding limits them.

How does the professional Personal Branding MasterClass unfold?
First off, though it does have a lesson plan and worksheet, this Master Class is not a class in the conventional sense of the word. So, no, there is no use of ppts and templates in the one-on-one coaching sessions, spanning 8 sessions across 10 weeks. Starting with an intake session comprising completion of a personal branding questionnaire the chosen participant then begins his or her 8 session journey.
The Personal-Brand coaching sessions are conducted either at the client’s location of choice, our offices, in-person (preferably) or on-line. Each session is 1½ – 2 hours, and is followed-up with at least 3-day (ideally 1 week) interval during which set goals or targets are reached in preparation for the next level. The client is provided with the Personal-Brand Coaching Inventory at the 8th session for review purposes and a certificate.
