Story Coaching & Consulting
storytelling is too
important to leave to
‘experts’.
A lot of people think storytelling is just for leaders or TED Talks, and they’d be wrong: STORYTELLING IS A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE. FOR EVERYBODY.
Great storytelling attracts human and financial capital. It’s how you build rapport and close deals. It’s how you create trust that leads to innovation. As AI absorbs more tasks, optimized storytelling is becoming the critical business skill everyone needs, because it’s one of the key ways we unlock humanity’s evolutionary superpower: collaboration.
But storytelling is more than an effective means of communicating - it’s helps develop a whole bunch of skills we need at work: curiosity, critical thinking, empathy, creativity, and persuasion. For those who go through our program, they start to see storytelling as a productivity hack, inducing flow states that lead to better performance. Other see it as an organizing principle, a way to take understand their experience, turn it into wisdom, and share it with others.
At StoryCharged, our mission is to steal the fire of storytelling from the gods and give it to mortals. We’ve spent a lifetime telling stories on every medium imaginable, and we’ve figured out three crucial things: 1) the most meaningful stories are not on YouTube or Netflix or TikTok but the ones we tell each other, 2) the most successful people are also good storytellers, and 3) just about anyone can be a good storyteller.
Are you a leader who wants to lead in a new way? Do you want to inspire your teams to greater performance? Do you want to create the kind of trust that leads to innovation and growth? Are you going through a transformation, and need your people talking about it in a way that makes it more exciting than scary? You need to be StoryCharged.
