  • THE RECAP - Take Action: Building a Personal Brand

    Welcome to this week’s Beyond the Bio bonus episode. In these short recaps, I’m picking out my key takeaway from Monday’s show and creating an actionable tip you can implement right now.

    On Monday’s show, I was joined by James Fleming. James has had a very interesting career path which has taken him from an electrical apprentice in Scotland to senior oil and gas roles in the Middle East and back to Scotland again, before starting his own business to help people become better leaders in business and in life.

    James and his wife Enas have built a £2million leadership/entrepreneur development business, centred around the idea that Motivational Intelligence is a key determining factor in how successful we are as leaders, and in life.

    We chatted about how James’ personal brand has massively helped his business grow and he shared the many strategies he has used to help his brand and business flourish.

    These bonus episodes are full of actionable tips and tricks that you can take forward to raise your profile. I’d love to know if you find these helpful and hear about which action points you’ve decided to embrace.
