Tag Yourself
Here’s a thought: what if you could tag yourself? What capabilities would you put out there for people to search on? Which do you think are most useful? How would tagging yourself change the way people saw your “value?” Do people in your organization know what you’re capable of, and if so, do they try to make use of it?
It’s tricky, because I venture that lots of us don’t exactly know all of our own tags, let alone which ones are truly more useful to others.
So, what tags do you give yourself? Do you share these with potential “customers” who might need (be willing to pay for) the services advertised in your tag?

If you go to http://www.43people.com people can tag you, talk about you and all of that. it’s 43things for meeting people. I don’t think you can tag yourself, but it’s still interesting.

I never thought of it as “tagging” myself, but I do something like this with LinkedIn.
Check my profile. There is a “specialties” section which I would use (with a little modification as my “tags”). For example: leader, relationship builder, analytical problem solver, process developer, change leader, talent developer, marketer, business developer, project manager, team builder, etc.
