Q&A w/ Carolyn Brand, Founder @ Brand Business Coaching
)
I’m Carolyn Brand, a Personal Branding & Leadership Consultant, Workshop Leader, and Public Speaker with over 30 years of experience spanning high-tech industries, including a significant leadership career at Rolls-Royce. Today, I work across Europe as a strategic consultant and moderator—guiding women, teams, and organisations to unlock their full potential through bold personal branding, authentic leadership, and impact-driven strategies. Whether in EU innovation projects, corporate environments, or on stage, my passion is helping people lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose in an increasingly complex world.
What are you looking forward to at European Women in Technology?I’m excited to be part of a dynamic space where powerful conversations happen—not just about technology, but about the women who are shaping its future. I look forward to connecting with trailblazing peers, learning from each other’s experiences, and creating space for bold ideas and real transformation. It’s an incredible opportunity to grow our collective impact and ensure women continue to lead confidently in this ever-evolving digital revolution.
What does the 'Leading the Digital Revolution' theme mean to you?To me, leading the digital revolution is not only about being technologically literate—it’s about being personally strategic. In a world where AI and disruptive technologies are accelerating change, we need leaders who are not just fluent in tech, but rooted in purpose, adaptable in mindset, and courageous in presence. That’s why I believe we must also lead *the business of ourselves*—knowing who we are, what we stand for, and how we show up. In a world where digital tools are evolving faster than ever, it's our human leadership that gives this revolution meaning. By building BOLD and BOLDer personal brands grounded in authenticity, we activate our 4Ps—Persona, Purpose, Positioning, and Presence—to lead with clarity, courage, and conviction. Authentic leadership isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the differentiator that allows us to thrive, not just survive, in this new digital era.
What can attendees expect from your session?In my workshop, 'Unstoppable You: Build a Brand That Gets You What You Deserve', attendees will learn how to define their personal brand with clarity and intention. Using my 4P Methodology—Persona, Purpose, Positioning, and Presence—we’ll dive into how to own your voice, activate your purpose, and show up powerfully in your career. Expect an empowering and practical session designed to help you step forward with confidence, make strategic moves, and amplify your leadership impact in today’s tech-driven world.
Register for your place to join Carolyn for her workshop 'Unstoppable You: Build a Brand That Gets You What You Deserve' at European Women in Technology on 25 - 26 June!
