When I grow up...

I want to have an awesome Executive Biography.
It would be completed with an orchestrated smile, airbrushed skin and a lofty title.

But I will write myself the awesome Executive Biography.

Because of late, I've been scarred from reading the Executive Biographies of many Senior Executives, that are written by outsourced professionals with a misguided sense of humour.

  • Some are empty-caloried fluff; others are so mindnumbingly technical that I'd rather read Sumiko's Sunday columns.
  • Some develop the kind of creative conflict within the bio that makes the Sino-Japanese relationship look like a pillow fight.
  • Some come with personal pledge creation like "My Personal Motto is Ever Onward!"
  • Some so disturbingly personal that I won't be surprise to learn from the bio that the Executive uses Herbal Essences Shampoo and goes for bikini waxing twice a month.
