An interactive presentation that explores why and how stories work and how to utilize them in your business practices.

The program covers story structure; how information is absorbed and recalled, how it applies to many facets of your business, practical tools and tips that can be applied immediately to improve your storytelling, and presentational skills.

Learn to persuade through narrative – subconsciously and effortlessly by simply telling a story.

transporting audiences emotionally.
They are the most effective form of human communication…
