How It Helps Your Business English

What this resource offers:

The article builds a professional introduction from three parts, your name, the value of your work and one detail that fits the room, and keeps the whole thing under thirty seconds. Full example scripts follow for a meeting, a job interview, a networking event, a video call and a first email. A list of common mistakes and a set of questions and answers close it.

How to use this resource:

You can write your own introduction on the three-part framework, then take the script closest to your next situation and put in your own role, company and detail. The advice is to say it out loud three times and record yourself, listening for filler words and rushed passages rather than for your accent. The list of common mistakes gives you something concrete to check your draft against.
