It All Starts With You

If you are not clear about who you are as a professional, others will make up their own image for you. Then they will broadcast that image. Wouldn't it be better if you took control?

If you were at a professional organization, you should be able to use your sentences to answer the question, ‘So what do you do?' And the person who hears your response should remain interested, pick up key phrases and walk away knowing what you do, who you do it for and who you do it with AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, why you are special! This means your paragraph contains the functional or technical aspects of your job and that special ingredient you bring. It is not enough to know that you are the director of quality assurance or the senior business analyst. You bring something special and unique to the job; tell everyone about that special quality. ...
