As a leader in your business do you feel distance between your staff or customers? In the classroom, do you struggle to connect well with learners?
Let me help you LEAD WITH YOUR STORY
Leadership Life-stories take your expertise, develops a message, and then shares these with others to lead authentically and serve well.
Here are just a few highlights I’m proud to share with you.
In a data-saturated world, with AI driven content, authentic human driven stories connects people in the classroom and boardroom.

The "Storyteller's Compass" is a bi-monthly Newsletter that offers thoughts and practical advice to help you immediately wherever you lead.
I really enjoyed the workshop, and would encourage you to hold it again next year. It was valuable, since storytelling is a great transferable skill that would be useful for students of all backgrounds.
Chris helped with the individual reflection of the students to find their role in the future as leaders by telling them and teaching his life storytelling methods. Chris helped a lot with the cohesiveness of the student group by engaging them into social connections and with creating a positive atmosphere in the group.
"I really enjoyed the topic of storytelling and having Chris provide the workshop! He did a great job of engaging both in-seat and virtual participants, and the reading that was sent ahead was really cool to consider."
"Chris is a real servant leader that is a joy to work with and all the students loved him."
"I really enjoyed Chris' workshop. I normally have to struggle to pay attention in such a long meeting, but the time flew by and I was really engaged. I liked that he connected his personal stories and made it easier for us to open up, too."
"Chris was very helpful and took part in diverse support activities, like planning the course content, and supporting students in project work and field trips."
"To me, Chris’s involvement in our Summer School was an absolute success. The students handed in anonymous evaluations when it was over, and Chris averaged a score of 9.28 out of 10."
