How can I manage my digital footprint?
I'm not suggesting you hide who you are - quite the contrary! I am advising that you rise to the occasion and be the person you should be! Post articles, achievements, and other artifacts that you can be proud of...things that create and present a positive image of you. Remember, the world is watching. What will people in the world think and remember about YOU? Will people respect you now and in the future? It's all up to you and your online choices. Be smart and think before you click!
Continually, ask yourself: Who do I want to be? How do I want people to see you, now and in the future? Am I doing a good job of conveying a positive image through my online actions and communications? These are the things you need to think about if you want to build a good reputation for yourself online.
