Your brand is created over many years and inevitably follows you throughout your life.

You are responsible for protecting your brand. It’s up to you to ensure that your values are steadfast and firm, as they will be tested.

Whether you aspire to Board Directorships or as a Management Consultant, as a Business Executive or a career in Politics you already have a reputation whether you manage it or not. It’s based around a number of factors, some obvious others less so. So, just what makes up a reputation?

Join us in other of our series of Sydney Rotary Boardroom Dialogues, as Garry Browne AM lifts the lid on what it takes to develop your reputation and why it can be destroyed in seconds.

Garry’s professional expertise has stretched over four decades in building brands both commercial and personal. He has developed and grown some of the best-known consumer brands in Australia and been the catalyst for helping people young and not so young in building their own personal brands. This involvement extends to community and profit for purpose organisations.

Garry now divides his time between roles in the Corporate, Government and the Not-for-Profit space, as a Non-Executive Director and Chairman including, mentoring and philanthropic projects.

He currently Chairs the Boards of Stuart Alexander & Co, the Charlie Teo Foundation and The Australian War Memorial ANZAC Foundation, a Council Member of The Centre for Social Impact Advisory Council, an Ambassador for Legacy Australia and Future Generation; Director of Rotary Foundation Australia, and Adjunct Professor at the University of Technology Sydney.
