TIME AND PLACE
22nd of March 2023 at 10 AM - 1 PM in Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Toom-Kooli 17, Tallinn)

DURING WORKSHOP, 4 THINGS WILL HAPPEN:

1. Rethinking the ancient art of storytelling

Why is storytelling so powerful and why should we use it? Let’s quickly explore three scientific studies and experience their effects. Considering how we might use storytelling in your messaging, leadership, communication or marketing?

2. Experiencing a guided imagery practice

We will take a moment to enjoy the inspirational and stress-busting opportunity that ‘instructed visualisation' can generate. A fun, yet informative practice that often presents some powerful truths, let’s take a moment to relax and engage our creative minds.

3. Sharing a story

Using some of the techniques we’ve understood: Let’s craft a short story and share it, rethinking our approach to listening in the process. This is a powerful opportunity to reflect on the interpersonal methods we use in the workplace whilst receiving feedback on our own storytelling techniques.

4. Applying stories to memory

How do we hold on to stories and how might others remember them? We will experience a method for prompting and remembering stories. What are the implications of these ideas in our professional work?
