Episode 14: #BrandBuilding

Top Take Aways:

1. Your brand is something YOU can control.
2. It is a fluid thing that can change. Know that although it can take a hit instantly, it can be improved but it takes 6-12 months to do so.
3. Create your own “Board of Directors”. Make sure it includes people from the different facets of your life (i.e. Parents, Siblings, High School/College Friends, Fellow Residents, Nursing, etc.)
4. Learn to embrace your role as a team leader (a Captain of your Ship as Drew would say) and that includes knowing your team members plat a HUGE role in your success.
5. Acknowledge your team members (get to know them, congratulate them, etc.)
6. Check in on your brand from time to time
