What fun I had last night. A packed conference room with more than 60 business owners, joined me at TEDCO’s Builder Fund Speaker Series. I delivered my Executive Storytelling: How Leaders Use Stories to Lead program (event invitation and description).
The attendees asked insightful questions, were curious, had some “aha” moments, and even laughed at some of my jokes.
Originally, I had divided the program into three parts. Since collaborating with Angela from TEDCO, I divided the two-hour program into five parts:
- Engaging Elevator Pitches
- Inspiring Personal Stories
- Better Meetings
- Dynamic Voice & Delivery
- 8 Must-Have Story Types
The participants practiced and revised their elevator pitches and personal business stories with actionable exercises and tools. Pictures below.
