Do I Really Need a Bio? And What Should It Say Any Way?

Presenter: Sylvie Sadarnac-Studney, Principal, Kedrika Communications

A professional biography is your signature, your calling card; it is your permanent imprint on a world saturated with thousands of messages a day. But how do you write a good, solid bio that both encapsulates what you are about and makes the reader want to know more?

In this session, you will receive specific, concrete tips on how to write a good bio. You will take part in interactive exercises to find the words that most fittingly describe who you are and what you do.

You also will learn about how online social networking is changing the rules of making connections, and how to fine-tune your bio into a virtual marketing tool.

Please bring your current bio if available.
