All good leaders are effective storytellers—because they must communicate their story constantly. They understand all of the dynamics of a good story. Through his own experience as a senior Army Special Forces officer who has operated throughout the world’s war and crisis zones, and a novelist, John’s leadership keynote, “The Enduring Value of Storytelling” shows audiences how to think about stories and storytelling as a routine method to achieving goals.
“The Enduring Value of Storytelling” leadership keynote is ideal for emerging leaders and experienced leaders alike, and shows how storytelling is one of the few ways to handle the most important and difficult challenges of leadership.
This message is best delivered in two parts: As a Keynote Speech, and then as a working seminar with your team. This leadership keynote on storytelling will leave your team with a strong understanding of the “The Five C’s of Storytelling”, story structure and frameworks, case studies of successful corporate storytelling, how to incorporate storytelling into company strategy, how to effectively tell stories in a digital age and compare breakthrough “StoryBranding” to conventional marketingInterested in learning more about John’s keynote speeches?
