Few would argue that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Certainly not Jenni Flinders. A former Microsoft executive, Flinders looks through the lens of her personal experience to demonstrate the importance of expressing your personal brand.

A global business warrior, conquering the IT industry for nearly three decades, recognized consecutively as “Top 50 most influential” and “ Top 100 most powerful” women in the channels, partners with clients to increase their reach in the market and helps put strategic planning into practice.
Flinders recently created People for Innovation, a Personal Presentation & Business Etiquette program, teaching corporate newbies the important things their college curriculum and on-boarding programs left out. She is the founder of le Pont vers la Vie Académie, a modern day finishing school for youth, and the Ellie Rose Foundation, focused on performance, placement, and prosperity for both beneficiaries, and partners.
