Hello everyone,
I’m excited to share that I’ve successfully completed my first MOOC course on personal branding from the University of Virginia. Attached above is my certificate to show this accomplishment.
As I progressed through the different modules, I realized that I’ve already implemented some of the tips suggested by the instructor, especially in updating my LinkedIn profile over the past months. However, I acknowledge that I could share more about my achievements, and that’s an area I plan to focus on in the future. While the idea of expressing my opinions on platforms like Twitter doesn’t appeal to me, I appreciate the concept and find the LinkedIn interface more suitable for my preferences.
The notion of having a personal board resonated with me. Reflecting on it, I realized I already have a similar support system in place, with some members changing over the years but maintaining a consistent core. I hadn’t thought of labeling them as a “personal board,” but it makes perfect sense.
Regarding personality tests, I’ve had mixed feelings about them. Every time I take one, even with a year between assessments, I get slightly different results. Although they generally fall within the same categories, the evolving nature of the outcomes is something I’ve noticed. Nevertheless, I acknowledge their value in helping to understand one’s abilities and how to best utilize them, especially in a team setting.
The course was well-designed and interesting. The instructor highlighted certain points that I’ll look into more deeply as I transition into my professional life next year.
Have a nice day!
