    Story Telling: Communicating for Impact

    Storytelling is a powerful tool that evokes visual images and heightened emotions. Leaders who can tell a good story have tremendous impact. 

    Storytelling is a timeless skill. Everyone tells stories. We do it every day. We see, hear, and tell millions of stories in our lifetime. And now more than ever, businesses, workers, and leaders have opportunities to stand out, spread messages, and make change through the use of stories. The leaders who can find, create, and share powerful stories will have a meaningful impact on productivity and profits.

    This presentation on storytelling asks leaders to consider the set of life stories that shape their approach to leadership. Each participant will examine and share transformational moments from their business lives, moments of incredible impact and learning, success and failure that have shaped who they are as leaders.

    Individuals will walk away having found, developed and told a personal business story that is meaningful and connects an audience of their choice. Additionally, they will begin a process of personal reflection that is necessary to find and share stories that motivate, entertain, inspire and move internal/external customers to act.

    Learning Objectives

    By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

    Understand the techniques underlying telling a powerful story,

    Understand how to frame images powerfully and creatively, and

    Create stories using techniques and skills that inspire and move your audience to action.
