Have you ever sat through one of those boring presentations, where the monotonous tone of the speaker is only made worse by slides that make your dog’s breakfast look like a work of fine art?

In this fascinating and evocative session, you will learn how to truly engage, compel and inspire your audience through the mode of storytelling. This workshop is all about finding your motivation through creative techniques while remaining focused on business relevance and outcomes.

Topics:

Stories, Stories Everywhere

From ‘Igniting Change’ to ‘Talking Values’ there are many types of stories to suit the situation. Learn how to pick the right story for your audience and your objective.

Tapping into Emotions

You can tell me how excited you are, but if you want to captivate me you’ll need to show me as well. We’ll show you how to develop skills that increase your stage presence and make you a compelling speaker.

Mastery of Movement

Lecterns are fine as far as they go, they just don’t go very far. Learn how to master the stage like Baryshnikov.

Life is full of Characters (and so are your stories)

Stories are about people and everyone is different. Tells us about the people in your stories. We want to see them and we want to hear them.

How Do We Do It? Using dramatic techniques as a base and linking them to practical application for business presentations.
