STORYPOWER ACADEMY IS COMPLETE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT & PUBLIC SPEAKING TRAINING TO HELP LEADERS TELL BETTER STORIES BETTER!

StoryPower Academy helps leaders and communicators of every level to look deep inside at the stories they tell and the impact those stories have on success, mindset and management.

Who is StoryPower Academy designed for?

  • If you have ever had an annual review which reads: "Room for improvement - work on being understood by subordinates and not talking over their heads."
  • If you have ever felt like your voice isn’t heard because you’re not confident in sharing your ideas with others.
  • If you have ever passed up an important opportunity such as a job, promotion or relationship because you didn’t have courage to share your opinions honestly.
  • If you have rehearsed many times but without the script, fear grips you and you can’t remember the words you labored over.
  • If you have fear of how others perceive you,  even though they are not judging you as much as you are.
  • If you are a leader or manager for any sized group or team, stories are simply the best tool for communicating ideas and coaching your team to implement specific instructions. If you want transformation to be retained by your team, you need #StoryPower in your arsenal.
  • If you are a public speaker, teacher, trainer, pastor or coach there is nothing worse to damage your integrity or credibility than trying to use someone else's stories, jokes or anecdotes to make a point.
