Keynote Speaker

Professional Presence & Impact – Your Personal Brand

​

James delivers keynote speeches on personal brand and leadership at dinners, conference, networking events and seminars.

Some people ask:  Why do I need a personal brand? Only celebrities have a personal brand, don’t they?

Your personal brand is your promise of a consistent experience to everyone with whom you interact. It’s who you are, but not the entirety of who you are. And the more that you can be in control of which facets of your personality, intellect and physicality you share in your interactions, the more you’re able to determine their outcomes. You can think of it as personal presence, but however you look at it, everyone has a personal brand. The aim is to ensure that others experience you the way you want to be experienced, so that you can achieve what you want to achieve.

James helps audiences to answer the question ‘who are you?’ He encourages communications self-examination and suggests easy-to-follow strategies for honing personal, leadership and team brand without sacrificing integrity.

James’ speeches are interactive, informative, laconic and occasionally hilarious. He draws on his own life experiences, from having his Russian Newsroom boss hold a Kalashnykov rifle to his head to being given mouth-to-mouth resuscitation by his father after falling 6 ½ metres from a tree. The audience is involved and gets a wonderful opportunity to think differently about their own personal brands.
