TORONTO, Jan. 20, 2017 /CNW/ - It takes a lot of support to become a successful athlete and acquiring this support, whether from sponsors, teams or fans, takes enormous effort.

Just as companies build and market their products, individuals pursuing athletic dreams, celebrity status or career mobility need to consider the image they portray to the outside world. Determining how to position and hone this public persona can make all the difference to their success.

On Tuesday, January 24 at 12 p.m. EST, Order of Canada recipient and Paralympic gold medalist, Benoît Huot will share his story of personal brand development and share his lessons learned in a webinar entitled, "Brand You: Building Your Personal Brand Webinar."
