I'd rather be the one giving the speech than the paragraph in the brochure about it

I have to write a bio to advertise a keynote speech I've agreed to deliver later in the summer.

I'm finding that coming up with more than one sentence to describe myself/my job is probably a lot harder than the speech will be itself!

Trick is to get a group of colleagues to contribute suggested ideas.

Or describe yourself as an excessive tea drinker which is my usual trick.

Yeah I used to mention that I had a dog. He was a good icebreaker topic. :)
