Storytelling for Leaders

Storytelling is one of the most effective leadership tools you can acquire as a modern-day leader. It is the differentiator between leaders who are middling and leaders who are transformational.  If used effectively, storytelling can help emerging and existing leaders establish healthy working relationships, leverage one’s talent, and accelerate one’s career. 

Joel has taught Storytelling for Leaders, a master-level course for university students in Europe and abroad, for nearly a decade. The course has been one of the highest-rated courses at the IESEG School of Management in Paris & Lille, France, since its inception.  

Fortunately, we have good news!  Now, Joel is sharing the offering with his organizational clients by focusing on three core areas: Storytelling Fundamentals, b) Strategic Storytelling, c) and Storytelling Mastery.  Let’s delve into each core offering: 

 

Storytelling Fundamentals: 

This training helps your leaders learn the fundamentals of strategic storytelling and effectively incorporate storytelling into their leadership practice. We also provide a separate offering (Storytelling For Nerds) to train leaders how to use storytelling in a savvy and compelling way to present data, numbers, and metrics for analysis and key decision-making.

Strategic Storytelling:

We provide training & coaching to help your people leaders deploy storytelling in a strategic way to support leadership development, enhance leadership presence, and build team cohesion. Strategic storytelling helps leaders manage personal resistance, facilitate team building, and reconfigure their personal brand.

Storytelling Mastery:

We provide 1-on-1 coaching to help senior leaders showcase storytelling mastery and prepare effectively for keynoting and public speaking. We focus on several key areas:

  • speech writing and refinement
  • authenticity & vulnerability
  • energetic presence,
  • behind-the-scenes preparation,
  • performance stagecraft
  • audience engagement.
