I have a confession: I hated my “About Us” section for a long time. It was impersonal. Static. Written like it belonged in a so-last-century corporate brochure.

Despite that, it took me two years to figure out how to rework the language to get the balance I wanted of informative, business smarts, and personality. (It’s been up for a little while, so you can check it out and let me know what you think.) It’s not that I didn’t try. Or that I can’t rework other people’s resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and About pages.

I just couldn’t get mine right. It’s just really hard to write about “me.”

Have you looked lately at how you’re talking about yourself? If so, did you change anything?
