re: The Value of Networking and Having a Personal Brand with Michelle Enjoli

Networking is one of those dirty words in life that always elicits eye-rolls and groans. But it remains one of the most valuable and useful ways to get into doors that might not otherwise open through traditional job applications and interviews.   While we often view networking as rubbing elbows at a dinner party or attending boring networking events, it's not always like that. More often, it's friends we meet throughout life, either through an early job, a family friend, or even a parent at our kids' school. What does remain true, however, is that the earlier we start and the more often we make those connections, the better off we are.   Meet Michelle Enjoli, a networking superstar who took her connecting and networking superpowers to a whole other level to get not just one of her dream jobs, but nearly all of them. That's right, Michelle claims that about 95% of her jobs have been through her network, which is amazing.    Whether you're 13, 30, or closer to retirement, it's never too late to hone your networking skills. So join us this week to learn how to do it and why it might just be the thing that lands you your dream job someday.    Key Topics: What we do is a huge part of who we are Dream jobs can (and do) change throughout our lifetime The importance of maintaining your native language and being bilingual if you can The responsibility of being the first gen older child in an immigrant family Wanting a job to provide for her family that she loved Securing her dream job before even graduating college Turning criticism into motivation Pivoting from TV production to doing speaking engagements for politicians and celebs 95% of career opportunities coming from networking The wake-up call of her career working at Mercedez-Benz Teaching people how to brand themselves to land new job opportunities consistently Why personal branding matters so much Defining and developing your personal brand Staying open and curious to re-evaluate your situation every few years Find more from Miichelle:   Instagram: @kelly.tolliday.yoga Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelleenjoli/ Website: https://www.michelleenjoli.com/ Instagram: @michelleenjoli Michelle's Tedx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEBAfujtmtg&ab_channel=TEDxTalks TikTok: @michelleenjoli Find more from Courtney Page: Instagram: @courtneyaustinpage Website: https://www.glowstatecoach.com/ Interested in 1:1 Coaching or Hiring Courtney for a Speaking Engagement or Workshop?
