The world is a strange place for us all at the moment. The global pandemic changed the working lives of millions, forcing many companies to cut costs by furloughing their employees or letting them go. The impact of this is increased competition in the jobs market as citizens from all walks of life frantically seek new employment.

Extroverts are naturally more adept than introverts at self-promotion. The result can be costly for introverts actively applying for roles or seeking new business. So how can you give yourself the edge to compete with those unafraid to put themselves out there?

Branding consultant Richard Etienne will teach you helpful ways to build a strong personal brand as an introvert - from becoming more assertive and using online communication to your advantage, to learning successful interview techniques, virtual or otherwise.

From strengthening your personal brand to networking with confidence and purpose – the tips provided in this masterclass will give you the edge you need to thrive as an introvert professional.
