Do you get squeamish when you have to introduce the keynote speaker at an event, your boss at the company party, or even yourself at today’s business event? Your anxiety will most likely show and prevent you from showcasing your true essence as a business professional. And even worse, that nervousness plus poor preparation will dishonor the person you introduce.
What if you started to think about the introduction as an art form? Are you a Monet or an artist whose work deserves the junk pile?
Today, in my Art of the Introduction keynote, I draw on skills developed while working in television news as an anchor, reporter, and talk show host—experience that required me to know how to introduce people concisely and with flair. I needed to get audiences jazzed about the person about to be interviewed.
Join me at the Woman’s Club of Minneapolis Networking Breakfast at 7:30am (walk-ins welcome) to learn how to give artful introductions that make the people you introduce want to live up to your words and the audience excited for a great show.
