FREE eBook – Personal Branding for Technology Professionals

FREE eBook – Personal Branding for Technology Professionals

By Rajesh Setty on Sun 23 Apr 2006, 8:13 PM – 7 Comments

I have been fascinated by the work of both my heroes Tom Peters (Brand You) and Seth Godin (Purple Cow) for quite a while. My series on Ways to Distinguish Yourself is an offshoot of my passion on this subject. Technology professionals need to brand themselves more than anybody else as the consequences of not doing it can be losing your job to someone offshore. Excellence in commodity skills can only take you so far.

Earlier this year, I wrote two columns on this topic for CIOUpdate

1. Jan 30, 2006: Personal Branding for Technology Professionals – Part 1

2. Feb 27, 2006: Personal Branding for Technology Professionals – Part 2

This eBook is the result of a few months of research and writing and of course, lots of help from lots of people. You will see that Personal Branding is no longer a “nice to have” thing. It is no longer a luxury. Earlier it might have provided the much required competitive advantage but now, you almost require it to survive and thrive.

Special thanks to the following people:

* Bill Sherman, partner at Intulogy. Bill also serves as my writing coach. If you like this eBook, a big

part of that should go to Bill.

* Renee Hawthorne of Intulogy. Renee helped me with the branding of the book. If you like the format of the eBook, all the credit should go to Renee.

Also, I have to thank the sponsors for funding the research leading upto the book and writing this eBook. These companies have been instrumental in ensuring that this book remains “FREE” for you.

Intulogy: Intulogy helps companies create outsource training solutions. They can almost fulfill every training need you may have.

Compassites Software Solutions Pvt. Ltd:

Compassites provides outsourced product development services. Their services extend from idea validation to post production maintenance for a web product.

I would love to hear your feedback and comments. I stopped short of

promising that you will get your value for money. It’s FREE. So I guess

I have to make a promise that you will get more than the value of money

:)


Want multiple printed copies?

I have partnered with a printing

company that will print and ship 10 or more copies at cost. Send me an

email at “rajesh301 at gmail dot com” and I will get them to send you

the pricing.

Amazing piece of writing Rajesh!

Very well compiled one!

Thanks for this free version :) I have only one suggestion – It would have been great if you could add Index in the front of book which gives glimpse of what all topics are included in the book.
