#refusetobeboring
Why think in story?
Stories make us feel as if the action is happening to us.
It’s like the difference between handing in a term paper vs. exploding a paper-mache volcano.
Term papers are great; but learning how a volcano works by actually experiencing one (at a safe distance) is so much better.
In your time with us, you’ll learn by doing, taking projects from your todo list to work on right in our sessions.
Oh, and making an exploding volcano will always get you bonus points.
Learning is doing.
Storytelling is already in your DNA
Being a storyteller is something you have inside, something you were born with. What we do is help you harness that power for all the ways you communicate at work.
Once you understand the basic elements of a story, how they work in business (and in your personal life) and how to create one on the fly, you've all you need to win any room.
Creative Confidence shouldn't be hard to come by
Who gets to be called an artist?
We all do!
We’ll help you feel more creatively confident as you learn to create stories in your own unique voice.
You’ll learn craft and strategies from the words of fiction, poetry, graphic novels, movies, advertising, business…anywhere a great story is told.
You decide what projects to work on and how to use your time. We share the tools and techniques that will work best for you.
Since we all have to write better at work, it's time to become a better storyteller.
how will you make your stories more powerful and persuasive?
