Understand how human behaviour impacts your personal brand

This three-week course will help you make sure your authenticity shines through in your brand. You’ll learn to harness what makes you uniquely you, and how this can make your personal brand more genuine and relevant.

You’ll start by exploring how we as humans think and act. This will help you explore the influence of behaviour and emotions on how we react to and engage with brand messaging.

You’ll explore the link between human and consumer behaviour before understanding how brands tap into emotions to influence their customers.

With this knowledge, you’ll learn how to apply these same techniques to your branding for effective results.

Discover the fundamentals of successful brand communication

Finally, you’ll learn how to make use of the concept of storytelling in personal branding. You’ll explore the seven classifications of stories and how they are used by brands and individuals to appeal to audiences. You’ll get a better understanding of which stories resonate with you and how you can use plot arcs to connect with your audience and get your message across.

You’ll get the chance to apply this to your personal brand, making use of the aspects of yourself that can be conveyed more emotionally in order to make meaningful connections with your audience.

By the end of this course, you’ll feel more comfortable presenting your individuality as well as developing an awareness of how others perceive you.
