Be Sharp: "Tell Me About Yourself" in Great Introductions and Professional Bios

Learn How to Introduce Yourself in Interviews & Networking with Polish & Pizzazz. . . . Business today moves fast. And it’s unforgiving. When you have an opportunity to meet someone or present yourself for the first time, you create such a lasting impression, good or bad, that it’s difficult and maybe impossible to change. Few people have so much personality and self confidence that they can pull off a flawless personal introduction without any preparation or thought. BE SHARP will help you answer the perpetual question “Tell me about yourself” with professional polish and pizzazz. If you follow these guidelines, you will have . . . • An engaging, memorable “elevator pitch” • Confidence to introduce yourself anytime anywhere • Rediscovered your unique talents and capabilities • A well thought out introduction for customer meetings, networking events, or interviews • An impressive, high-impact bio that gets real results • The know-how to adapt your bio to any situation Once you have a solid introduction and your foundation bio, there are numerous ways to use it: job search, business proposals, marketing materials, websites, board bios, service business bios, and public speaking, to name a few. Also, our world of electronic communication demands that you pay attention to your cyberspace presence. This book addresses all these areas.

Be Sharp is excellent advice for the 'new age' of job search. These principles are relevant and timeless. I highly recommend this book to everyone who is either in a job search or in sales.

5Sharpen your Act by just improving the basics  Mar 15, 2009
By Kristin S. Kaufman "Principle, Alignment, Inc" ( and colleague of Noel Tichy from the NYC Leadership Academy experience)"
Paula Asinof is a seasoned professional who is reminding us to 'take care of the basics' to achieve competitive differentiation. How we 'show up', especially in these tough times, will certainly make a difference. This can be as simple as how we introduce ourselves, our 'elevator pitch', our one page 'bio' and 'leave behind'...these will make the difference in today's sea of unemployed and/or high potentials looking to achive greatness! Worth the read - a simple, yet incredibly powerful - book of golden nuggets. Highly recommend.

5Best Bio and Introduction book around  Oct 17, 2011
By Susan Chritton
I am a Career & Personal Branding Strategist who has been asked to write Personal Branding for Dummies (to be published in May 2012). I have been using "Be Sharp" book with my clients for the last couple of years and love it. I have recommended it to all of the coaches on a corporate assignment as well. I will be showcasing some of the material in my book.
