Today We Honor the 2008 Personal Brand Award Winners

What a year it’s been for personal branding and for people creating “Me 2.0.”

Each year, I like to reward some of the standout brands by recognizing them with Personal Brand Awards. Last year, Rohit Bhargava won the gold award, which is the most coveted of all of them and this year Jeremiah Owyang was presented the 2008 gold award. A panel of judges were chosen this year and people were graded based on a few factors, such as value proposition, differentiation, and marketability. Below is a celebration for all the winners and they are also recognized in the current issue of Personal Branding Magazine, which is available for you today.
