Leaders Lounge Workshop: Storytelling for Leaders

Join Moyra, on September 14th from 10:00AM to 11:00AM AEST via zoom to explore storytelling for leaders. Cost is $30.

Leaders will learn why it matters to their employees, stakeholders and clients that they become inspiring storytellers and when and how to tell a story that will make a difference.

They will learn how to weave stories that rely on facts to capture their listeners’ minds with emotions focused on capturing their hearts. (Sometimes where the heart goes first, the mind follows soon thereafter).

Finding their own stories allows leaders to lead more authentically by providing a tool that will allow them to motivate, convey lessons, simplify complicated data, promote organizational values and recognize performance..

Join the #GoSmallCanada challenge 

What's the #GoSmallCanada challenge? 

This summer, we’re challenging Canadians to come together and support small businesses across the Country. Together, let’s show how BIG small businesses can become when they have a little help. ​

Small businesses have been the backbone of our communities forever. Isn’t it time to share the love, and become the cheerleaders and advocates they need right now. ​

When we band together and choose to buy from our favourite small businesses, even the smallest purchases add up. Those purchases become even more powerful when we share those #hiddengems for other consumers to discover.
