A lesson learned (hopefully)

brand management, inspirational leadership

A recent photo shoot for Vanity Fair may have added a bit of tarnish to the otherwise spotless image of Hannah Montana, the acting/stage name of 15 year-old actress Miley Cyrus. For those of you unfamiliar, Cyrus, the daughter of famed country singer Billy Ray, is in a hit Disney show, playing a girl who lives a double life as a high-school teen by day and a famous pop star by night.

Cyrus, no stranger to the spotlight came out and apologized immediately to her fans for the “racy” photos, citing them as a mistake and adding that she hopes she did not disappoint anyone. Good move on her part. Hopefully this will be a good lesson learned in personal branding. Even a small slip can stain the clean sheet of your image, personal, professional, or company, if not handled in an appropriate and timely manner.
