We often believe that super effective leaders who use stories to influence are born that way. We listen with wonder and delight to Steve Jobs, or wonder just how Barack Obama answers questions spontaneously and adds little stories here and there to influence the audience.

The truth is, they weren't born this way; they used only a few simple storytelling techniques to influence. That's why you must join us for a full-day workshop as Jeff Tan of REV Training and Coaching shares their secrets of leadership with storytelling!

Session Outline

Three key areas are covered to make you an even more influential leader using stories:

1. The Knowledge
• Discover what’s a useful story in a business context, and
what the brain must hear for influence to take place.
• Understand which influence situations need a story and which don’t.
 
2. The Stories to Use
• How to build a very useful collection of stories to use at the right time. Stories don’t
magically pop up in your head when you need it, so we’ll build your own collection during
the workshop. Building a collection before you need it is crucial, yet it’s always
ignored!
 
3. The Tools (and we’ll practice this throughout the day)
• How to rapidly find a useful story to influence from your collection of stories.
• How to handle any objection gently using stories to influence.
• How to tell your story to influence so that you influence others unconsciously using simple public speaking “tricks” all professional speakers use.
 
Who should attend?
Warning! If you’re coming to just passively listen, this workshop is not for you! But if you want to leave the workshop with a collection of useful stories to use, and the ability to immediately use it, then you must attend!
