From an operations perspective, storytelling is a skill that empowers leaders to create common ground among teams, unleash the drive and passion of their people and share a vision for the future.

The primary focus is on the ability to deliver effective presentations with the desired impact, using a professional tone and Storytelling for Business techniques. Using the steps covered in this program, participants will learn how to deliver presentations with clarity, confidence and credibility.

This will enable learners to deliver information impactfully, that connects, engages and influences people in a real and authentic way.

The approach we use is in two stages;

Stage One – content training half day

Stage Two – skills practice and feedback half day

This approach is indicative of how we tailor our programs to the Clients needs. We strongly recommend contact with the Client at design stage to ensure the program is tailored your specific learner groups and Business Objectives.

Building on over 40 years’ experience in human resource learning and development; the tutors utilize an experiential learning approach to their programs. This methodology of learning provides an opportunity for learners to engage with, experience and apply the learning in a practical way and also provides the opportunity for learners to receive feedback on their newly applied skills. The opportunity is also provided to learners to reflect on the full learning experience and how this might be of value to them in the achievement of their learning goals.

To assist and continue with skills development, we facilitate via email a post learning reflective practice utilizing skills practice sessions recorded during the course. This assists delegates in embedding new learning, gives further support and enables them to define any further actions required. This program offers one to one or group coaching as an additional element to further support the delegate and embed the learning process.
