About Session 4 | Branding as a Leader: When to be “You” and When to be Your Organisation

As a nonprofit leader, you’re often the face of your organisation. But how do you draw the line between your personal voice and your organisational identity? Should you speak as yourself or let the organisation lead the message? How can your personal brand build credibility for your organisation — and vice versa?
