"The trainer was excellent, their knowledge and presentation was great".

VisitBritain

Storytelling is a proven technique used by authors, journalists, and thinkers which can have a dramatic impact on the way you and your organisation communicate.

This course shows participants how to move beyond data, ‘facts’ and information and harness the power of ‘Storytelling’ in order to become more efficient and effective in all their communications.

Participants will be able to think, speak, and present data and information in stories and not catalogues. They will be able to put together an engaging story, from developing insightful content to writing stories that flow and are succinct.
