The personal branding course has been very informative as it helped me to develop a better understanding of a solid personal brand. I mostly enjoyed learning how to separate personal life from professional life on social networks, which is really important when dealing with a large audience. For example, I usually post some guitar-playing videos on YouTube but this has nothing to do with my academic and professional life. So, having the knowledge to choose the right platform to share my thoughts is very useful. Besides, I learned about the 80/20 rule which is excellent for sustaining the development of my personal brand rather than posting stuff for entertainment.
Another idea that triggered me is that I have always felt ashamed of posting my career development on social networks because not everyone has the opportunity to achieve such things. However, how should I expect people to appreciate my skills without sharing them?
As for my PLE, I thought LinkedIn was the only platform for professional networking, but from now on I will start using Twitter to share and exchange professional thoughts to grow my network.
Ultimately, this course was insightful and full of ideas that made me see things from a different point of view, develop my skills, and understand myself.
