PDT-BusLM-160 - Use Stories to Uplevel Your Training and Public Speaking
Course Description
How to Make Your Presentations More Clear, Interesting, Persuasive, and Memorable by Using Stories to Make Your Points
We’ve all been subjected to boring presentations where the speaker trudges through PowerPoint slides and/or speaks in abstract ways that leave us unclear about their message, and…wishing for the presentation to end.
If you’re lucky, you have also watched presentations, like great TEDTalks, where the speaker shares interesting stories that make their points come alive and keep your attention throughout the whole presentation.
That’s the power of storytelling.
Besides helping you to become a more interesting and compelling trainer, getting good at storytelling also helps you:
- Provide better, more actionable feedback on what excellence looks like and how an employee can improve their feedback
- Communicate a hard-to-hear message in a non-confrontational way Make new hire orientation and training programs more interesting and inspiring
- Make your presentations—and communication in general—more interesting and persuasive
- Make your new hire orientation far more interesting and inspirational
- Reinforce your cultural norms and values and help employees understand how to embody them in their jobs
- Help keep morale high and employees more connected with your organization’s mission and vision.
In this program, taught by the author of Powerful Storytelling Techniques for Trainers, you will learn how to find, curate, and tell stories that will help you do all of the above.
