July 16, 2008 at 18:54Jane ChinIt definitely does, and it isn't exactly easy to formulate for many of us who may be interested in diverse topics.
July 16, 2008 at 18:56Jane Chinhere's my follow-up question: do you think formulating a pers/brand when you're not sure what it is, is better than not formulating one?
July 16, 2008 at 20:11swoodruffsaysAh, but the topics of interest don't determine your brand. What is it about JANE that she brings to all these interests?
July 16, 2008 at 20:12Jane Chin"Jane's perspective" but that is still too vague for me.
July 16, 2008 at 21:23swoodruffsaysHere are the 3 words that come to mind when I think of you: Analyst. Seeker. Principled. Can you build on that?
July 17, 2008 at 01:06Jane Chinwell, if I rearrange the words a bit my acronym can be "SAP"...
July 17, 2008 at 01:06Jane Chinbut yes, I exhibit the above traits. I'm most proud of the "principled" one bc "integrity" is a "brand" that only others can give you.
July 17, 2008 at 01:14swoodruffsaysAnd, it is a key part of your brand - no matter what your specific field of endeavor
July 17, 2008 at 01:14swoodruffsays...because it's...you.
July 17, 2008 at 01:21Jane Chinthanks Steve! I appreciate you telling me this.
July 17, 2008 at 19:55swoodruffsaysYou're welcome. And, you can join "Idealist" to the term "Seeker" for a fuller picture of Brand Jane. I mean that in a good way.
July 17, 2008 at 20:59Jane ChinI will! and I like having one more letter to play with my acronym
