It was also a reminder that you have the power to make sure that your brand stands out like a total eclipse in the workplace. Tune in to hear Jayzen’s actionable steps on how to leverage your brand to ensure that the experiences you create for people in your world are unique and memorable, so that you are known as someone that people want to take notice of and use their efforts to help you in your career.
