It’s Not About Who You Know, But Who Want’s To Know You

Posted on August 3, 2010, by JD Kathuria, under Uncategorized.

Over the past eight years, as Editor-in-Chief of a DC based e-magazine, I have had the unique opportunity to interview over 1,000 senior level executives.  I have learned a lot about what it takes to build and sustain an on-line and off-line brand in the C suite.

The executives that had a larger than life personality often had an outstanding personal brand outside their respective company. They were able to drive value inside their company, based upon the quality of relationships outside their company.   This did not happen by accident and allowed them to advance faster than their peers.   They knew how to leverage relationships in a good way over many years.

I am re-launching my blog to provide fresh insight and first-hand accounts from the ones you want to know in the DC business community.
