[Dana Bresee Keeth]

  Reminders from Bob Dolan.

*Branding – Effective Communication Skills*

*Wednesday Nov 7th Location: 1-190   2:00-3:30PM *

*Your Brand is what people say about you when you are not in the 
room.*Communication goes beyond verbal skills which are important to the 
success of any job seeker. To Brand yourself as a professional, you must 
deliver a consistent message in a Written, Verbal, and Virtual manner. 
As students and postdocs begin to look for positions in engineering and 
science, both in academia and industry, they must be aware of how their 
nonverbal communication skills impact their possibility of finding 
employment opportunities. Learning how to maximize the use of one's 
verbal and nonverbal communication skills is a powerful tool to help one 
achieve professional success, and a critical component for the future.
