Fearless Storytelling Workshop
A Fearless Storytelling workshop will teach your organization’s public speakers to loosen up, be relatable, and make their presentation data come alive. We’ll have fun creating stories and jokes that audiences love. In a spirit of authenticity and connection, we’ll mine your organization’s story for the vital human stories within it.
