Too many people don’t understand the value they bring.  “How do I go about making a strong personal brand?”  “How do I get noticed by employers/investors?” I was recently inspired by Fabio Marrama 's and  Tiffany Parra 's posts on the value young people can bring and how to define that value.  There are so many of us that define our professional brand by the number of jobs or titles we’ve had. After interviewing community builders and successful entrepreneurs, it has become clear to me that it was not their title that made them confident. Instead, great leaders knew exactly how they changed the organization for the better. It’s one of the biggest reasons I tend to resent the “fake it till you make it” mentality.
