Public speaking is more than just the big stage 🎤 ⬇️
When you introduce yourself to a group of strangers at a networking event, for example, you should have your content ready and deliver it in a memorable way.
Thanks to my job as a presenter, I get to meet many people. Unfortunately, I don't always remember who I shook hands with 🤝

I’m shaking hands with the CEO and co-founder
Let me say this loud and clear: this is not because I am arrogant or rude. As a matter of fact, I try very hard to remember people, their names and a few facts about them because that is a skill that I value ✨
Nevertheless, one of the reasons why I don't remember some people is because they introduced themselves with 'hi, my name is ..., I work as an X at company Y.
A good introduction has to be memorable; otherwise, it is useless 🚀
I am not the only one who has shaken someone's hand, heard their name, and, as they turned around, already asked myself, what was their name again?
When introducing yourself to someone, you should connect with the audience and get your professional and personal story across 💯
