ASTD Mt. Diablo invites you to write your own ticket through creative business writing
How to Write a Bang-up Bio
So many professional profiles on LinkedIn or
Facebook are dry, boring, and laced with alphabet-soup credentials. What a
waste. The new social media offers an opportunity to set ourselves apart from
the pack instead of crawling into the same den with everyone else.
How to Write a Bang-up Bio
walks you through four steps that result in an attention-getting bio:
Brainstorm with Yourself; Show, Don’t Tell; Stick to Your Brand; and Edit for
Success. It also dispels four myths
about bios: Keep it Short; Write in Third Person; Avoid Personal Information;
Write in a Professional (a.k.a. stuffy) Style. You’ll leave with a good start
on a fresh, engaging bio.
And
you’ll be able to adapt everything you learn from this presentation to any and
all writing projects—from sales proposals and cover letters to blogs and
newsletters. Lynda will share ways to jump-start your writing, design and write
an exciting middle, and craft compelling calls-to-action.
