When it comes to taking important decisions, facts and figures are essential. But when it comes to changing people’s mindsets, making them adhere to a decision, igniting action, you need a different strategy. That’s where storytelling comes in.
Of course we are all storytellers. When meeting with your friends, at home with your kids,... Obviously professional storytelling is not just bragging in a bar at Friday eve. It is deliberately and sparingly using a powerful tool for persuasion. In particular if you take up a leading role. If that is what you have been looking for then you should definitely join us on this learning trip.
Storytelling is not yet another training in presentation skills. The crucial switch is in wanting and being able to look differently at facts, figures and contexts. It's both mindset and behavior. So yes, be prepared for some serious action where we will get under your skin.

Your journey starts with a storytelling exercise upfront, to get you warmed up for ‘the real work’.

Of course there is a time and place for everything, yes even Powerpoint. Still we must admit that we like pulling this particular Microsoft product a leg from time to time.
