The Four Powers of Personal Branding | Sudeep Chawla | TEDxBITSoM
Sudeep Chawla introduces the four powers that form the foundation of a lasting personal brand. The first power, “Authenticity”, is about discovering who you truly are and embracing it in every action. The second power, understanding your “Why”, helps you focus on purpose-driven actions that resonate with people. The third power, “Power of Submission”, ensures you reach and benefit even those who might not be your intended target.

Sudeep illustrates each of these powers with examples from his own journey, showing how anyone can leverage them to create a personal brand that is memorable, impactful, and enduring.#PersonalBranding #LeadershipInsights #MarketingStrategy #AuthenticityMatters #KnowYourWhy #AudienceEngagement #ConsistencyIsKey #BrandBuilding #MarketingLeadership #ProfessionalGrowth #BrandStrategy #BITSoM #BITSPilani #TEDxBITSoM We're excited to introduce Sudeep Chawla, the Senior Vice President of Marketing at Pidilite Industries Limited, who will be joining us at TEDxBITSoM.
