2-Day Storytelling for Business Workshop
Thanks to our instructors, we learned a lot about ourselves and how to tell our story. The workshop is a great opportunity to get up there and tell stories, well within your comfort zone, but within an environment that encourages you to push yourself just a little bit. Without such terrific instructors, the class wouldn't have been as remarkable as it was. -

Storytelling: Presentations to Elevator Pitches
I learned more from this single-session class than I ever did during 8/10 session-classes. It was wonderful! Even though it was on a Monday night, Andrew was energetic and motivating. He moved quickly through the information and was a natural and engaging public speaker. He had video examples that he shared with the class that were very helpful—it was great to see the materials actually being used in practice. The class size was smallish (enough to fit around a conference room table), and he divided the class time into instruction and fast-paced storytelling/pitching with partners. I very much plan on taking more of Andrew's classes in the future. -
Communicate to Influence 1-Day CTI Express
This was a great crash course in communicating and presenting. It forced me outside of my comfort zone but I was amongst a small group of very supportive company, and 2 instructors that made it low stress! Got a lot out of it, especially the video feedback and coaching sessions. -
