1
Tell me about yourself.
2
Four simple words that can make anyone ramble or freeze.
3
Even people at the top of their game can go blank when they hear those dreaded words.
4
So what does that mean?
5
Does your introduction really make that big of a difference?
6
I never thought it did.
7
I thought my introduction wasn't nearly as important as my qualifications.
8
For example, right after I started my business, I had the perfect opportunity to shine.
9
I was interviewing as an instructor for Supply Chain Institute, and I knew I was the ideal candidate.
10
I had over 20 years of expertise leading supply chains for one of the world's largest consumer products companies.
11
As a prep for my interview, I didn't want there to be any doubts about my qualifications.
12
I created an elevator pitch and included a complete list of my accomplishments.
13
When I heard "Tell me about yourself," I was ready, and I proudly explained everything that I could do.
14
When I finished, the interviewer said, "Instead of talking about yourself, it would have been more effective if you had explained what you can do for me." My interview lasted five minutes.
15
She rejected me on the spot based off of one answer.
16
That was my wake-up call.
17
I realized it doesn't matter how smart you are, it doesn't matter how perfect a fit you are, if you can't capture someone's attention.
18
After that, I became laser-focused on cracking the code on introducing myself.
19
I studied the science of first impressions.
20
I researched viral headlines and what made them so irresistible.
21
And then, I discovered the secret of introducing myself perfectly in 20 words or less.
22
Fast-forward about six months.
23
I'm having coffee with the executive director of a business-development program.
24
She asks me, "What do you do?" I answer her in one sentence: "I'm a communications consultant and I help people with something to say but struggle to say it." She leans in and says three magic words.
25
"Tell me more." Fifteen minutes later, she hires me to give workshops for new entrepreneurs.
26
But here's the thing.
27
I was the same person who blew that interview just six months before.
28
But this time, I got the job, even though I had way fewer qualifications and the only thing different between success and failure, between that door of opportunity opening or slamming shut in my face, was my introduction.
29
From that point on, I started to see my introduction in a whole new light.
30
It wasn't just a way of grabbing someone's attention.
31
I thought about all those times when I would hear "no," and my inner critic would tell me that people didn't see me or hear me because I wasn't good enough or smart enough.
32
But that was wrong. It wasn't me.
33
It was my introduction.
34
Alright, are you ready to introduce yourself in 20 words or less?
35
I'm going to start with two secrets of getting people to say "tell me more." Secret number one: Think sound bite, not data dump.
36
That’s because with today’s multitasking attention-deficit audiences, it's been said you have a better chance of engaging with a goldfish than the person that you’re talking to.
37
A 20-word introduction is designed to grab someone’s attention and get them to say "tell me more." Secret number two.
38
Do you remember what that interviewer told me?
39
"Don't talk about yourself." Instead, explain what you can do for them.
40
I call it the difference between an “about-me” versus an “about-you” introduction.
41
An about-me introduction sounds like this: "I'm an award-winning, best-selling author." Compare that to "I help new authors get published faster." Can you hear the difference?
42
One describes me, the other describes what I can do for you.
43
Now that you know the secrets, here are five ways to introduce yourself perfectly in 20 words or less.
44
I'm going to start with a straightforward about-you introduction.
45
The formula is "I help my target audience achieve a benefit they desire." For example, "I help worried job hunters confidently explain why they're the ideal candidate to hire." Now, here's a tip about your "benefit." A benefit answers your listeners' question "How will my life be different?" For the second framework, let's go beyond offering a benefit.
46
Let's promise a breakthrough.
47
The formula is the same as the benefit one, but you're going to add the word "without." "I help my target audience achieve a benefit they desire without negative consequence." "I help establish brands in competitive markets, rapidly reach new audiences without increasing marketing spend." The word "without" is so powerful because that's how you explain what makes you unique.
48
For the last three frameworks, here's what to say if you don't want to focus on your career.
49
For example, you're mission-driven, or you're on a career pivot.
50
Maybe you're a student and you don't have a lot of work experience.
51
In this case, you can use your passion, your mission or your strength.
52
I'll start with your passion.
53
"I'm passionate about something I value to achieve something my target audience values." "I'm passionate about helping people in need and creating opportunities that change lives." Next, instead of your passion, you can use your strength.
54
"I'm known for my strength to achieve something my target audience values." "I'm known for my critical thinking and turning information into actionable insights." Last, you can use your mission.
55
“I’m on a mission to -- to achieve something my target audience values.” "I'm on a mission to bridge the healthcare divide and make a lasting difference for vulnerable communities." And that's how you use your passion, your mission or your strength.
56
Now that you've seen the five introductions, your next step -- try them out.
57
Don't be surprised if you find yourself using more than one.
58
That's because different audiences value different things, so what works for one may not work for another.
59
But that's OK.
60
You'll see there are multiple ways of getting people to say "tell me more." I'll close with this thought: Have doors been closed in your face?
61
Do you struggle to be seen and heard?
62
Does your inner critic tell you you're not good enough or smart enough, or that you're an imposter and something is way above your pay grade?
63
Before you buy into your inner critic's narrative, let me challenge you.
64
What if? What if that voice inside your head is wrong?
65
What if you are good enough and smart enough?
66
What if the best way to describe you is "impressive"?
67
Not "imposter." And what if the only thing between you and being seen, heard and recognized is your introduction in 20 words.
68

맥락 & 배경

이 비디오는 리베카 오카모토가 자신의 경험을 바탕으로 효과적인 자기 소개 방법을 설명하는 내용을 담고 있습니다. 많은 사람들이 "자신에 대해 말해보세요."라는 질문을 듣고 긴장하거나 얼어붙곤 합니다. 이 질문은 면접에서 자주 등장하며, 정확한 소개가 성공적인 커뮤니케이션에 얼마나 중요한지를 강조합니다. 리베카는 자신의 경력에 대한 내용보다 상대방에게 어떤 가치를 제공할 수 있는지를 설명하는 것이 더 효과적이라고 말합니다. 이는 유튜브 영어 공부에 도움이 되는 중요한 교훈입니다.

일상 커뮤니케이션을 위한 5가지 주요 문구

  • "당신의 이상적인 후보자가 되어 주는 방법을 도와드립니다." - 구직자에게 자신을 효과적으로 소개하는 방법.
  • "부정적인 결과 없이 원하는 이점을 달성하도록 돕습니다." - 고유한 가치를 설명하기 위한 전략.
  • "출판이 빠르게 이루어지도록 신인 작가를 지원합니다." - 상대방이 얻을 수 있는 혜택을 강조.
  • "저는 의사소통 컨설턴트입니다." - 직업을 간단히 소개하는 방법.
  • "신생 기업을 위한 워크숍을 제공합니다." - 특정 서비스를 제공하는 방식.

단계별 쉐도잉 가이드

리베카의 비디오에서 배운 내용을 효과적으로 익히기 위해서는 다음 단계를 따라 보세요. 처음에는 비디오를 여러 번 시청하면서 주요 메시지를 파악하세요. 유튜브 영어 공부를 하면서 중요한 표현들을 노트에 적어보세요. 이때 shadowspeaks 기법을 적용하여 비디오의 내용을 따라 읽어보는 것도 좋습니다. 매일 일정한 시간에 반복적으로 연습하면 영어 발음 교정에 도움이 될 것입니다.

다음 단계로, 자신의 말씀을 준비해보세요. "나는 무엇을 할 수 있는가?"라는 질문을 바탕으로 자신만의 20단어 소개를 만들어 보세요. 이 과정은 IELTS 스피킹 준비에도 큰 도움이 될 것입니다. 마지막으로, 실제 상황에서 자주 말해보는 연습을 통해 자신감을 다져 보세요. shadow speak 연습을 통해 자연스럽게 말하는 능력을 향상시키길 바랍니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
