What we’re about
Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of Silicon Valley - the innovation capital of the world.
The advent of the Digital Age has democratized innovation and entrepreneurship.
Never before has it been more possible for anyone from anywhere, with a great idea and a burning desire to succeed, to make it big, and in the process, change the world in a relatively short period of time.
HP, Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, Google, Facebook and many, many, many other iconic companies all started with just an idea.
Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions in Silicon Valley and beyond. Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing".
We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, engineers, venture capitalists, angel investors, educators, financial professionals, corporate executives, attorneys, academics, bloggers, writers, content creators, and social activists.

As they say, "it's not who you know or what you know, but who knows you."
At the center of that is a personal brand, which is a combination of how well known and memorable you are. At scale, that translates to everything that includes job opportunities, speaking engagements, and strategic introductions.With social networking platforms like LinkedIn, X (Formerly Twitter), Facebook, and YouTube, the opportunity to be known is easier than ever. Yet with others going "viral" and your friend always seeming to get that job, you might ask, "Is it for me?"
The answer is yes.
Albert's List, founded in 2013, has been opening job seekers and working professionals to opportunities and career strategies since 2013. Our community of 48,500+ is a connection point to building one's personal brand, including networking over LinkedIn, speaking at live events, and sharing expertise.
We want to help you uncover your personal brand and achieve success with a short two-week Fall 2023 Personal Brand Workshop. Our instructor is Jonaed Iqbal, a LinkedIn top voice with nearly 42,000 followers on LinkedIn with a consultancy helping businesses achieve greater awareness and professionals write attention-grabbing resumes. He's built a sustainable personal brand that builds authentic connections and will share how you can do the same.
THE WORKSHOP
Our workshop is an two-week immersive experience that will help you discover your personal brand, whether you are a working professional, job seeker, entrepreneur, or freelancer. You'll learn how to stand out professionally, including crafting a multi-platform presence that is sustainable and builds real relationships.Here's what's included:
- 2 weekly sessions with Jonaed and Elisa where you'll learn the ins and outs of personal branding.
- A personalized plan for how to build your personal brand, including a content calendar and topics.
- A primer on how to avoid personal branding mistakes that others make.
- A guide on how to translate your online personal brand into real life.
Best of all, it all starts at an affordable $97 Bootcamp. Similar bootcamps online run anywhere from $397 to $997 at the length of time and depending on the instructor.
