this is why I write a lot of the abstracts for speakers at our conferences! I know speakers often hate this bit the most!

what I usually say to speakers is a rough title and 3-4 bullet points of what you want to cover as a start-I think why it's challenging is folks try to "sell" the talk from the get go, rather than refine the focus, then worry about selling it
