Personal branding is essential for any developer looking to advance their career and stand out in a crowded job market.

In this talk, we will explore the concept of personal branding and provide practical strategies for building and promoting a personal brand through networking and communities. We will learn how to use social media, blogging, public speaking and other platforms to showcase our skills and expertise, and how to leverage the power of networking and communities to expand our reach and visibility.

The talk will include unique case studies showing the impact of personal branding on career advancement and opportunities. The presentation is based on the speaker's own painful experience, as someone who struggled to stand out in the job market, and chose the path of practicing and deep diving into the art of communities, networking and personal branding (and even wrote a book about it).

The attendees will leave the talk with a clear understanding of what personal branding is, why it is important, and how to implement it in their own careers, leveraging the power of networking and communities.
