Everyone is a storyteller whether you’re on a stage, across a conference table or on a video conference. Impactful presentations leverage the power of storylines to reach an objective. The best approach is to start with a compelling message, and then learn to develop a storyline that proves it out. Specific stories are tied to points within the storyline to engage the audience. This program introduces the fundamentals of a compelling storyline and memorable stories.

KEY COMPONENTS:

Understanding Listener Expectations
Creating a Powerful Message
Developing a Storyline/Framework for Communication
Creating Stories to Support the Storyline

It doesn’t take long to notice that some people stand out and get noticed in a business setting. Whether it’s a staff meeting, a client discussion or even a social hour, we notice people who seem confident and comfortable. It’s why they get heard when they speak and noticed when they enter a room. Confidence isn’t just a skill for leaders; it’s a differentiator that strengthens any employee’s personal brand and impact in an organization.

The Power of Your Personal Brand
Intention behind Impressions & Impact
