Think of any great presenter—Steve Jobs, Richard Branson or Jeff Bezos—and it won’t take you long to figure out that they are also master storytellers.  Storytelling is increasingly becoming a “must-have” skill for business leaders, but you still won’t find it on any MBA curriculum.  

This webinar will give you a deeper understanding why story is such a powerful strategic tool and how it can be used in the business setting.  We will show you a specific “before and after” example of how a case study was transformed into powerful case story for pitching new business.  We’ll also give you some key tips on how to craft and use stories to make an impact in your next big presentation or business meeting.

“As an ex-newspaper reporter, I have always recognized the value of storytelling. This webinar helped provide a great framework for bringing people into the important strategic and cultural stories I need to be communicating.”

What You Will Learn:

  • The neuroscience and psychology that proves why stories work
  • Tips for transforming run-of-the-mill presentation content into powerful stories that engage audiences 
  • How storytelling can be used as strategic tool to build chemistry and trust with others  
  • How even data-driven presentations can benefit from the art of storytelling
  • The difference between conventional storytelling and strategic storytelling for business purposes.  Please bring your ideas and questions!
