Storytelling and the Art of Saying Hello: 30 Seconds That Make All the Difference  As professionals, we all deserve to be known for our achievements and to be understood for our value proposition. Once called personal branding, the critical element is to introduce yourself to people in way that the listener understands the essence and uniqueness of our personal life. A well-conceived professional brand introduction is the old-fashioned elevator pitch, polished to a high degree professionalism to maximize memorable impact. A great professional brand quickly differentiates you from others. It is easily recognized when done well, yet so hard to make on our own. Once scripted and perfected, your brand introduction is a durable asset that can serve as your networking introduction, your LinkedIn profile summary, your professional resume summary and for use during internal meetings with partners or executives. Paula Calise will share with us her three-step method, and by the end of her program, everyone in the audience will have his or her own uniquely crafted, polished brand introduction.
