An ‘Ambitious Entrepreneur’ in Japan

Do you find yourself in a market where fitting in is the norm making it difficult for you to stand out? Then this podcast is a must-listen.

I was honored to be asked by Annemarie Cross to join The Ambitious Entrepreneur podcast this month to share some insight in how to break away from the pack and ride to success with key personal branding strategies in any culture.

Using Japan as the backdrop, I explore

  • Tips on being a ‘solopreneur’ in another culture;
  • How to brand yourself across cultures using the ‘personal branding style dial”;
  • Key strategies that will help you start branding yourself cross-culturally today;
  • and much more!

Enjoy and share a comment below.
