The Stories We Tell (And the Connections They Create): A story-communication experience for Leaders...

The stories we tell shape how others see us—and how deeply they trust us. In leadership, storytelling isn’t just a soft skill; it’s a trust-building superpower. Whether you’re leading teams, designing a conference, or planning a high-stakes event, your ability to tell intentional, authentic stories directly impacts how people connect, follow, and engage.

This session is both introduction to and an immersion in the With 1 Word® storytelling method—an actionable framework to uncover, shape, and share stories that build affective trust: the kind of trust people feel emotionally before any results are seen.

You’ll experience how intentional storytelling creates deeper team cohesion, stronger conference experiences, and more relatable affective leadership.

Because how a story sounds in your head is never how it lands in the room—you’ll practice out loud. This isn’t just theory. It’s a training ground for influence.

This session isn’t just for you. It’s for the people who count on you to help them create connections.

Learning Outcomes / Session Goals:

**Leave with story frameworks that enhance team communication, elevate the impact of events, and strengthen your leadership voice

**Gain a repeatable process for discovering the right story for any audience or situation

**Learn the SARM formula for crafting stories that are Specific, Authentic, Relatable, and Memorable

**Practice telling stories out loud to develop your delivery and presence in real-time

**Understand how affective trust is built through storytelling

You are welcome and strongly encouraged to join us. Do not miss this special event!
