Who are we?
Persona Cognita (Latin: known person) was born out of curiosity, a wish to help others showcase their best side, and the belief that people must speak louder of their achievements.
A few years ago, while writing her Ph.D. thesis, dr. Dominyka Venciūtė began exploring personal brands and the importance of their image and visibility to the performance of various organizations.
Way before that, Dominykas’ friends and acquaintances would ask her help when representing themselves, preparing for conferences, or simply picking the right pictures for social media. After delving deep into the academic nuances of communication, the wish to help professionals communicate more effectively was strengthened with a strong basis of theoretical and practical knowledge. So, in 2019, Dominyka founded Persona Cognita – a niche personal branding consultancy.
We live in the age of influencers, social media, and endless opportunities to be seen. By harnessing communication in public domains, we can all create value for both ourselves personally and the organizations we represent. However, wanting to do so isn’t enough – knowledge and skills are just as important. And this is what we at Persona Cognita wish to share with progressive organizations. Today we are proud to be able to educate specialists and professionals as well as award them with confidence and belief that everyone can create value for others and become known.
We specifically use the word known instead of famous. Our goal isn’t to make people famous. Our goal is to make them known for their competencies, knowledge, skills, and value they create for organizations and the world.
