SPEAKER/TOPIC: The Art of Standing Out with Creative
Branding - Personal branding is a hot topic. Get visible
when you reconnect not only with friends and family members,
but reach out to people whom you've not contacted recently.
Everyone you know can be a brand ambassador for you, but
only if you stay in touch authentically with inventive
communications that set you apart. You'll leave this program
with imaginative and fun takeaways to help you differentiate
yourself, stand out and stay excited and engaged. Leigh's
hands-on exercises will help you creatively market "Brand
You."
Leigh Owen is director of
marketing for Vickie Milazzo Institute, just named for the
second year in a row as one of Inc.'s Top 5000
Fastest Growing Private Companies in America. The institute
is a $16-million education training company certifying
registered nurses to consult with attorneys on cases with
medical-related issues. Since 2001, Leigh has promoted the
company and its trademark certification program to the 2
million nurses in the U.S. She is in charge of the
publication of all the Institute's educational textbooks,
DVD's and audio programs. Leigh also oversees the company's
