I’m Dr. Gertrude Nonterah and I speak to professional audiences on how they can leverage personal branding and thought leadership to lead, grow, and thrive in an ever-changing world of work.

In a business landscape marked by rapid change and unexpected disruption, career growth is no longer linear or predictable. The difference-maker? How professionals communicate their career narratives.

I’m Dr. Gertrude Nonterah, and I help corporate professionals and teams strategically use personal branding and thought leadership to communicate their value, take control of their professional narratives, and advance in their careers with confidence.

After I speak to your audience, they will:

1 – Learn how to clearly articulate their expertise and professional value, especially during transitions or times of uncertainty.

2 – Understand how to build a credible and visible personal brand that drives influence, leadership, and new opportunities.

3 – Gain a practical roadmap for using thought leadership on LinkedIn – the world’s largest professional networking platform – to stand out, lead with impact, and future-proof their careers.

I’ve delivered keynote talks and workshops to over 25 organizations and institutions and I’d be honored to bring this message to your team.

Who am I?

Hello, I’m Dr. Gertrude Nonterah. I am a medical communications professional, career development consultant, and speaker.

I graduated from Lewis Katz Temple University School of Medicine with a Ph.D. in Microbiology and Immunology in 2015.

After overcoming a season of unemployment using personal branding and networking, I decided to help professionals leverage personal/career branding to lead, grow and thrive in the constantly-evolving business environment. I have since spoken to audiences at 25+ organizations and institutions.

My passion is simple: I want to help your audience feel empowered, gain practical strategies, and walk away with the tools they need to succeed on their career journeys.
