The Stories We Tell

Course Description: 

Articulated Intelligence, on behalf of the Colorado Nonprofit Association, invites you to join and participate in this 60 minutes collaborative experience “The Stories We Tell”.

The stories you tell are a driving force for you and your organization. It’s what moves people to action, makes your organization/presentation/idea memorable and allows others to share your story. Learn the With 1 Word® storytelling method to find a collection of stories for different situations and audiences, work through a process to shape them so they hold your audience's attention, then share them out loud, as they always sound different when spoken vs. in our heads. In this interactive workshop you’ll learn how to search for stories for any situation, how to shape them for maximum impact, and how to share them with authenticity and confidence.

Course Objectives: 

  • Walk away with a repeatable process for finding stories for any situation or audience
  • Learn the SARM formula for crafting stories that are specific, concise, and memorable
  • See firsthand how practicing out loud transforms your delivery, stories, and relationships
