Ira Glass of This American Life says, “Great stories happen to people who know how to tell them.”
Effective personal storytelling is an essential skill for success and it’s one that anyone can learn. In her public workshops, storyteller Terry Wolfisch Cole will teach you how to turn unique experiences into interesting stories that will captivate listeners in any setting. You’ll learn effective personal storytelling tips and tricks that are equally applicable on stage, in a meeting, when making a presentation or speech, as part of your elevator pitch, or at a more personal lunch or dinner. You will have opportunities to discover your stories (yes, interesting things have happened to you!), to select one to craft during the session, and to practice telling it. One-on-one coaching is also available. Book your session today.
All currently scheduled workshops are virtual. In-person sessions will return when it's safe.
