It's always a great honour to be asked to be a guest on a podcast or teleseminar so I was thrilled to be a guest on Zane Safrit's Blog Talk Radio show where he talks about social media and employee engagement.
I first heard of Zane some years ago when I him online through Debbie Weil's blog - he was previously CEO of Conference Calls Unlimited, the bridge line sponsors of the 2007 Personal Branding Summit which I chaired last November.
We had the opportunity to talk about social media, personal branding and employer branding and you can listen to the show recording HERE.
Zane was a generous host and allowed me to talk - I hope you will find the podcast of assistance if you are looking to further develop your personal brand for professional success and your employer brand to attract and retain talent.
