You have nowhere to hide when you get on a stage and face a room of people. Have you ever wondered about the impact a stage can have on your personal brand?

I attended the Octopus Energy ‘Energy Tech Summit’ in Battersea Park with my friend Gordon Fong, watching more than 3,000 people and a whole host of speakers, panellists and recognisable personalities take to the stage.

It was an amazing opportunity to watch so many professionals communicate their expertise, opinions and personalities in public. And, of course, I was secretly evaluating their personal brands as they did it.

In this episode I share what I noticed about the people who really shone, the people who lost my attention, and what being on a stage can reveal about your personal brand. I also share my three takeaways for you if you are speaking on stage, thinking about doing more public speaking, or simply want to strengthen the way your specialist knowledge is communicated.

Come listen!
