Presentation:
“Know Thyself, Brand Thyself! The Secrets of Self-Actualization and Workplace Engagement”
In this session, Michael Milutis will share what he has learned from having consulted with hundreds of project management and IT professionals from around the world on their personal branding and career development challenges. He will explain why self-knowledge and mindfulness are such critical success factors, while also exploring the key personal questions that everyone must find answers to, and that are universal across functional areas. Michael will walk you through this process and then demonstrate how one’s learning strategy, networking strategy, and personal branding strategy all flow logically from the answers. Attendees will walk away with a roadmap for becoming more fulfilled and self-actualized and for positively transforming their careers.
