Duncan Yellowlees 🎓💬Opening your talk?
Skip the waffle. No one cares where you work or how many awards you've worked on.
Grab attention with a hook like, a question, or a bold statement, then get straight to the good stuff.

@d_yellowlees @0xabad1dea I agree that your opening should be a hook.
But I also think it’s important for transparency to disclose early who you work for. Especially if they’re paying you to be there. It’s important context for the audience, as it can hint at where biases may lie.
