Describe yourself in 56 words

or sell yourself on twitter in 280 characters

Styled myself for my birthday shoot a while ago, do you love it? Should I start styling people?

Something random,

I clocked 10,000 followers on twitter today and I randomly remembered my friend’s post titled “If 10,000 People Are Following You, will you look back?…“.
I was at an award ceremony yesterday and I met different people, different big, influential people who knew me, either by name, or by face or both.

Most of them said the same range of statements when they wanted to greet me;
’You are the HR Guy, right?,
Are you the HR Guy?’
You spoke at this xyz event, right,
You taught the founders at this gathering right’?

It was humbling, it was overwhelming. It reminded me of my definition of branding- being an entity with a unique identity.

Anyways, that was an intro, I didn’t plan to write it so enjoy the sumptuous appetizer.

Now, to the main course.

I wanted to do an introduction after clocking 10k followers and I realised how tasking it was. Because I am one of those people that DDK* will call a multi-expressive person with a multi-influential flow, I am used to writing different bio of myself.

For instance, in the last three months, I have had to write a bio for a literary gathering where I was the invited guest, an international podcast on women football where I was being a sport commentator covering women football matches across the globe, and of course, for a speaking engagement where I was teaching founders how to build the best HR practices.
Can you see? Three different settings, three different bios. That’s the life that chose me.
Anyways, despite this variation, I found it a fascinating challenge to describe myself in 50 words, but I came up with this.

Let me know what you think.

You know, a random task I used to do when I just started out my career and personal branding, was to write different bios and asked my virtual assistant which one she thought was better.I probably should go back to doing that.

Have you written your bio recently? What does it look like?
You can write one and share me the link. You honestly don’t have to be a speaker to have a bio. It helps you sell yourself coherently and aggregate your achievements, while measuring your journey.

I’d review the first ten entries I get FOR FREE. News says I write the best bios.

Ask around, it might be true 😎

As the habit is:
Books to read:
I haven’t read anything new in the last two weeks, I worry I might be experiencing a reading slump. Please recommend me something quick and easy to read.

Movies to watch:
I am still binging “Kill me, Love me“. New episodes drop by Midnight.

Songs to listen to:
What it is- Doechi ft Kodak Blak
King Jesus- KB et all (this is the most melodious medley you’d listen to this week, I promise)
Jackie Hill Perry- First Draft.
