In our current, fast-paced digital age where businesses are all competing for attention and dealing with a cynical audience, it's not enough just to offer up the facts about you or your company to potential customers, prospective employers or investors, or even to your own colleagues. You need to be able to show them: What makes you or your business so special? And to do that, you need to have a good story.
Stories are an effective way to transmit important information and values from one individual to the next. Stories that are personal and emotionally compelling engage more of the brain, are better remembered and more likely to provoke a positive response, than simply stating a set of facts.
This workshop is designed to introduce you to the power of storytelling, its strategic value, and the ways to become an influencer right way.
