Aimed at existing leaders and new/future leaders.

 

Authenticity in leadership is increasingly seen as desirable. It’s about being yourself. But what if your sense of self doesn’t include seeing yourself as a leader?

 

Storytelling is a key means of connecting with others. It’s also a way that leaders can show their authenticity and humanity.

The workshop starts with a leadership self-assessment opportunity.

This helps people to reflect on the different dimensions of what skills and attitudes they need in order to be a good leader.

 

We move onto using narrative and storytelling techniques in a work context with the group story telling game. This allows participants to refine narrative techniques in relation to professional events.

 

We now blend the leadership topics with storytelling in a fun interactive exercise, which starts with an unexpected game!

 

This leads to the final part of the workshop where the group work in pairs to refine and deliver a story to the group which encapsulates their leadership style and delivers a message.
