What is your personal trademark?

This week we are joined by Gavin Mahony, Facilitator for Leading Teams – an organisation that develops high performing people in sport and business and well known for facilitating the cultures of some of the most successful AFL clubs.

Today, he is going to walk you through how to create your own, personal trademark!

What is a personal trademark, you ask? 

A personal trademark is an aspirational statement that guides your attitudes, dictates your behaviour and helps with your decision making.

But why is this important?
