Executive StorytellingSM Seminar
There is an axiom that managers direct and executives convince, but that true leaders inspire. Business leaders have now rediscovered that, regardless of role or position, the best way to make a point, convince a skeptic, or encourage another is by telling an authentic and compelling story.
Our Executive Storytelling Seminar is a one-day training program that transforms the traditional techniques of storytelling into a powerful business resource that anyone can use.
If you are ready to take your communication skills to the next level and would like a tool that not only overrides the boredom of typical business presentations but is also a powerful motivator and management tool, then this seminar is for you.
You will learn how to use stories to:
- Capture attention and boost retention of your message,
- Bring complex facts and figures to life,
- Engage and motivate others,
- Break down barriers,
- Move people to action,
- Take advantage of your own natural style, and
- Bolster your own storytelling abilities.

Who should attend?
Corporate executives looking to enliven their presentations, business communicators who need to deliver compelling arguments, and sales executives who want to become more persuasive.
Hands-on training
Our Executive Storytelling seminar is an interactive, hands-on workshop. A full day of intensive work. No long, boring lectures. You get to try out new skills and techniques immediately. You make presentations in front of a group of your peers. You get to see yourself on tape. And you get immediate feedback that will help you take your skills to a whole new level, before you ever leave the session.
Experienced faculty
ECG has been providing high-level communications training to leading companies around the globe for over 25 years. The instructors that teach our seminars are the same people who personally coach the top executives at those firms, and they will work directly with you for the entire two days.
Supportive environment
Enrollment in each of our sessions is purposely limited so that you get the personal attention and immediate feedback of a small group setting. You gain valuable experience directly communicating and interacting with others in team exercises. And you get individual, one-on-one coaching and attention from our instructors.
Proprietary techniques
You will also learn specialized methods and techniques we have developed over the years that make the business of communicating easier, more effective and less stressful.
