WEBINAR DESCRIPTION: In the workplace of the 21st Century, corporate loyalty is essentially dead. Not all of us realize that we are all freelancers — always having to hustle for the next project, the next gig, the next client. Often we are surprised when, at a moments notice, we find ourselves in the unhappy position to look for the next job.

Although the size of the freelance or gig workers is not accurately known, workforce analysts and economists agree the the number of freelancers is increasing and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. This webinar will help prepare you, your students, and clients and other job seekers to navigate this new world, including how to define, articulate – and then market – their personal brand.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

At the conclusion of this webinar, you will be able to help students and clients

• Understand the need to have self-marketing become second nature
• Learn to determine, articulate and sell their individual brand
• Appreciate the fact that you are your own business – and strategize building and sustaining it using the Multiple Income Streams Approach
