The Brilliant Weirdo
Value Statement Generator
Your elevator pitch sucks. I say that with love — and total certainty — because almost everyone's does. It's either a jargon smoothie, a rambling apology, or something so generic it could describe literally anyone with a LinkedIn profile.
We're going to fix that. Right now.
This is a fill-in-the-blank exercise — think of it like a word game for your professional identity. You'll pick from a few options, fill in one blank, and walk away with a Value Statement that's surprisingly accurate. More importantly, you'll understand the structure of a well-crafted one — so you can keep refining it long after you leave this page.
One quick thing: you might not find an option that fits you perfectly. That's fine. Choose the one that's close enough. This is a starting point, not a tattoo.
Pick a word that describes how you're different.
Nothing feel exactly right? Pick what's closest — you'll make it yours later.
What's your role or job title?
What do people love about you?
Again — close enough counts. Pick the one that makes you nod, even a little.
Why This Structure Works
A great Value Statement isn't a list of skills. It's a sentence that makes someone lean in and say, "Tell me more." Every piece does a different job:
Most people introduce themselves with just the role. "I'm a marketing consultant." Fine. Forgettable. The adjective and the superpower are what turn a job description into a reputation.
This tool is where you start — not where you stop.
Swap in your own words. Change the adjective. Rewrite the superpower in language that actually sounds like you. The specific words will evolve — the structure stays. Adjective + Role + Superpower. Keep refining until it feels like you — the version of you that walks into a room and owns it.

Now That You've Got the Words...
A Value Statement is only as good as the room you test it in — and the brand behind it. Two ways to keep going, depending on where you are:
