WORKSHOPS
HOW TO BUILD REAL CONNECTION BY TELLING STORIES WITH SOUL
We live in a world of information overload -- yet more than ever people are craving bold, purposeful ideas & solutions to their problems in the sea of constant distraction. How do you get your community/consumer/audience to pay attention & buy into your big ideas? You have to lead with purpose. In this talk, we'll discuss how to create stories with emotional depth & from your core values to capture attention & move people to action.
You'll learn:
What the soul of your idea is & why it's critical for building connection internally with your employees & externally with the people you serve
What personal experiences best communicate your idea & what tactics to use to create powerful stories around them
The one key thing you must do to gain attention & engagement with your audience
NAVIGATING CHANGE: SHIFT FROM AWARENESS TOWARD ACTION
While pride, confidence, & comfort frequently accompany personal & professional achievements, change often remains difficult to explore. Once you've identified a great idea (or several), how do you take action without getting stuck? This workshop is designed to help you effectively manage any change that you're seeking. Through discussion of uncertainty, types of change, & the ways in which we get in our own way, participants will be better able to:
* Quickly increase awareness of potential & ongoing changes
* Identify next steps toward greater engagement & fulfillment
* Reduce stress, anxiety, & overwhelm by managing mental blocks
