Janel is an executive brand strategist and founder of Janel Dyan, Inc. With her proven JD Methodology and three step process, Dyan has found that a female executive’s personal brand is the missing link between female driven consumer economy, and the rise of women in leadership by asking not “What do I wear” but rather “What story do you want to tell?”

We talk about:

• Understanding the JD Methodology TM and the three steps to establish truth, trust, and loyalty in the era of storytelling.
• How this proven methodology can inspire others to create a waterfall of female empowerment through their personal brand story.
• The impact our first impressions make in our careers and lives.
• How investing in your women leadership will not only drive ROI but establish a dominant presence in your industry.
