Academic Branding

”““This book is the compass that every person in academia needs in order to share their expertise with the world, using step-by-step instructions in order to achieve their dreams. While the job market might be difficult and higher education might not pay as well as you want it to, your blueprint for financial success is embedded in these pages. Your dreams are waiting.””
—Michael Ayalon, CEO of Greek University

“”Academic Branding provides a clear methodology, informed by best practices in teaching and learning, that scaffolds the personal and professional branding process for academics—allowing faculty to begin the process with thinking and exercises that lay the psychological and practical foundation for success in areas where faculty routinely struggle: building connection and community with those outside of academia and knowing your worth. This is an absolute must-read for minoritized faculty and graduate students!“”
