My name is Dr. Tóth Tamás former Commercial Director of IBM Hungary turned consultant and I want to share why I am traveling 4,400 miles to attend Brand Camp.
Every year, around springtime I spend a week in NY, to get energized, to visit friends, to visit contemporary art galleries, Broadway and Joyce dance theatre, restaurants and some shopping. There is always a professional part of my visit to New York; this year’s visit has been scheduled to be able to attend the Brand Camp, personal branding 2.0 - NYC conference on Tuesday, May 24th at the Riverside Theatre.
In the 90’s and early 2000 I was a headhunter with one of the leading international search companies, after I created my own consulting company on leadership development and executive coaching, for 3-years. I am deeply involved in personal branding projects (I believe being a pioneer with personal branding in Hungary) to advise top management on this absolutely new kind of service.
I am absolutely excited about the speakers and meeting experienced professionals of personal branding.
