As far back as the mid-90s, executives started to make the difference between the need to build their company\u2019s brand as well as the intrinsic value in building their own. However, fast forward 20-plus years later to this new digital era and executive branding is just a necessity for any CEO in today\u2019s workplace.<\/p>\n<p>The reality is that executive branding is not just a vital component of professional networking. It can pay dividends in promoting future career opportunities, managing your reputation as well as boosting your own organisation\u2019s brand. Think about this: global executives assign 45% of their company\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalschoolofmarketing.co.za\/blog\/the-latest-trends-in-online-reputation-management\/\">reputation<\/a> to the reputation of their CEO.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever wondered why particular peers or otherwise emerge out of nowhere to national fame, we can tell you it\u2019s not because they are simply smarter than the rest of us. Chances are that it\u2019s as they made a strategic, concerted as well as sustained effort to build their personal brand.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Start Now<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s no point in putting off building your personal brand as it\u2019s not going to take place overnight, so you might as well get as much of a head start as you can. Even if you\u2019re stuck in a rut, you won\u2019t be for long if you begin following these points. Having a personal brand, particularly in today\u2019s competitive market, is essential for a long as well as successful career, so don\u2019t delay.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Have Strong Values<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>And stick to them, naturally.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, your <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalschoolofmarketing.co.za\/blog\/why-values-and-ethics-are-important-in-marketing\/\">values<\/a> \u2013 as well as the actions you take on the back of those \u2013 are a massive part of who you are, personally and professionally. Take some time in order to think about what values you hold most dear and what defines you? What is very important to you? When you have a list (not too long, mind you) prioritise them according to which values you hold in highest regard.<\/p>\n<p>However don\u2019t forget that you need to enjoy yourself along the way.<\/p>\n<p>If you really enjoy what you do, the client\u2019s enjoy working with you and you enjoy coming into work every single day. And this becomes the culture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-video align_none ratio_16x9 has_iframe\"><div class=\"w-video-h\"><iframe title=\"Vimeo video player\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/267575808?autoplay=0&loop=0&autopause=0&color=00adef&portrait=0&byline=1&title=1&controls=1&muted=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/div><div class=\"w-video-icon\" style=\"font-size:1.5rem;background:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);color:#fff\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2><strong>Find Yourself A Niche<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What is it that characterises you?
