description: The next time you introduce a speaker, be memorable, witty, and make it good!

This is a video of a great speaker introduction.

 

It was witty. It enchanted the audience. Above all, it honored the speaker. Sure 8 minutes is a bit long, but wouldn't you rather this than a few mumbled bio lines, stammering uhs, and unmemorable accolades?
