The art of influence: Storytelling & presence in leadership
ℹ️ About This Event
If you want to shape the future, you need to know how to shape a room.
Whether you're pitching a bold idea, leading a team through change, or speaking to stakeholders, your ability to influence depends on more than data—it’s about presence, clarity, and emotional resonance. Influence isn’t just what you say—it’s what people feel when they’re around you.
This 60-minute session blends neuroscience, narrative design, and embodiment practices to help you craft a leadership presence that inspires trust, action, and alignment.
Does this sound like you?
You’re not always heard the way you want to be. You have ideas—but sometimes they don’t land. People nod, but don’t move.
You want to engage, not just inform. You’re tired of dry decks and surface-level conversations. You want to connect emotionally and shift perspectives.
You’re ready to lead with story. You know influence isn’t about authority—it’s about energy, clarity, and storytelling that moves people.
Join us for a 60-minute interactive lunch workshop, where you will:
Unlock the neuroscience of influence: Learn how attention, emotion, and story shape decision-making.
Craft your leadership narrative: Build a compelling personal story that conveys your purpose, credibility, and vision.
Embody presence: Develop voice, posture, and mindset techniques to lead with calm authority—even under pressure.
You’ll walk away with:
A powerful leadership story you can use in high-stakes moments
Techniques to create trust, inspire action, and hold a room
Practical tools to elevate your impact—in meetings, keynotes, or tough conversations
This session will help you shift from “I hope they listen” to “I know how to move this room.”
