Who It’s For:
This session is designed for outdoor industry professionals who want to grow their visibility without feeling like they’re performing a version of themselves. Whether you’re early in your career, navigating a pivot, or stepping into a more public-facing role, this workshop supports people who want their personal brand to feel grounded, confident, and genuinely aligned with who they are and how they work.
Workshop Description
In this session, we’ll rethink personal branding as a practice of clarity rather than self-promotion. Participants will learn how to articulate what they care about, how they work, and the value they bring in a way that feels natural, not forced.
Through guided reflection and practical tools, we’ll explore how to show up with intention across key career touchpoints, from conversations and interviews to online presence. You’ll leave with clearer language for describing who you are and what you do, along with a more grounded sense of how to communicate your work in a way that actually feels like you.
Key Takeaways
How to talk about your work and impact in a way that feels natural and grounded.
How to bring more intention to where and how your professional presence shows up
How to align your reputation with the direction you want your career to grow.
Language frameworks for answering questions like “tell me about yourself” with confidence
