Building Your Bio: An Introduction to Telling Your Story

Often, the first place someone new learns more about you is when they go onto LinkedIn or your company website to read your bio. Unfortunately, most bios don’t really sound the way we do when we meet someone in person, do they? There is a disconnect.

In this interactive workshop, Adam Holtzer and Arthur Germain will guide you through the process of crafting a bio that truly reflects who you are, not just what you do. Your bio is more than just a summary of your accomplishments or professional profile, it’s a powerful tool for building connections and making a lasting impression. Whether for your LinkedIn profile, personal website, or professional networking, this session will help you create a narrative that speaks to your strengths and showcases your unique story. Through hands-on exercises and expert insights, you’ll learn how to present yourself authentically, attract the right opportunities, and communicate more effectively in your personal and professional life.

By the end of the session, you’ll walk away with the tools to build a bio that helps you stand out and connect meaningfully with others.
