I had the fortunate opportunity to interview Dan Schawbel, on his new book, Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success (Kaplan; April 2009). He is the leading personal branding expert for Gen-Y. BusinessWeek considers Dan to be “a leading voice in the area of personal branding.” Fast Company calls Dan a “personal branding force of nature” and Entrepreneur calls Dan a “Gen-Y branding expert.” Currently, he serves as EMC Corporations first social media specialist.
