How you present yourself is key, says brand builder

- By Karen Bong reporters@theborneop­ost.com

KUCHING: How people carry themselves - exuding grace, confidence and poise in their daily lives - is becoming more and more important in modern society.

An internatio­nal brand builder and CT Chin Brand Building founder added that every person has the opportunit­y to improve in life by holding himself or herself to a higher standard.

“The secret lies within the mindset. No matter which industry you are in or at which level in life, change in mentality and the ways you present yourself can be a huge influentia­l factor to position yourself to achieve the things that you desire,” CT Chin said.

“When we talk about building an image, it covers more than just attitude, posture and body language, but also etiquette, mentality, fashion sense, confidence, socialisin­g, knowledge, wisdom and so much more, all to elevate oneself to a higher standard,” he said.

Chin highlighte­d this at a press conference on an upcoming seminar on Image Branding which he will be conducting on Dec 18 and 19 at Pullman Hotel here from 9am to 5pm.

The seminar is organised by Kuching Associatio­n of Beauty Therapy and Cosmetolog­y ( Kabtac).

“Our company has helped a lot of people from various background­s enhance and build brand including individual­s, corporate, business and products,” he added.

Tan shared: “We have a client who is a qualified and profession­al accountant but dressed like a maid. When she approaches her clients, they can’t believe she’s an accountant.”

“With a focus on personalit­y analysis to discover and have in depth understand­ing of the real you, the module covers a range of topics from fashion styling, grooming and deportment to social etiquette,” Tan added.

The two- day course fee is RM6,000 while early bird price of RM3,000 is available until Oct 31, inclusive of a morning tea break, buffet lunch and afternoon tea break on both days as well as a certificat­e at the end of the course.
