EP060 | Being Quirky Me Means Making Higher-Level Connections, with Gordon Fong
In this episode:
Mini-series: ‘Real life Personal Brand Examples’. Conversations with people who are experts in very different fields to what you’re used to hearing about. I talk to them about how they are faring ‘out in the world’ - building and shaping their personal brand to suit them.
Meet my friend, Gordon Fong. He is a businessman who specialises in the areas of digital, data and defense.
For me, he provides us all with a great example of just getting out there and seeing what works both for the people he’s trying to engage with, but also – for him, in what he’s comfortable with and what he enjoys doing.
Gordon proves that even in a business area like his where the world seems scary, secretive and terribly serious – personality and smiles still play a vital role in connecting humans at all levels of decision-making.
Do come listen. You will not be disappointed. (And you will get to hear about Battle Labs and Battle Busses!)
