Personal branding is not just the purview of the social media influencer. As engineering professionals, we have a reputation that impacts how we are perceived and how we get work. When you become an engineering manager, your personal brand becomes even more important. Your personal branding starts from your first day on the job and influences your teams, your colleagues and your clients. This webinar focuses on how to engineer your personal brand from engineering professional to engineering manager.
