About this Event
The WOW Story Lab is a free, hands-on 90-minute workshop for professionals, leaders and entrepreneurs. Not a lecture, not a room of people watching slides. You bring one true story from your work or life, something that took about a minute to live through, and you work on it out loud.
WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH
- Greater confidence in your storytelling
- Techniques you can apply to any story from now on, taught with live examples rather than theory.
- A clear sense of what was working already and what was getting in the way, from people hearing it fresh.
- A reliable way to open a presentation, a pitch, an interview answer, or a toast, instead of starting with an agenda slide.
- Honest feedback from people who are not your colleagues, which is rarer and more useful than it sounds.
WHO THIS IS FOR
- Managers and leaders who need people to care about the thing they are presenting.
- Founders and entrepreneurs who are tired of pitching features instead of a story.
- Salespeople and anyone who has to persuade a room that is not automatically on their side.
- Anyone who wants to be better storyteller at work or outside of work
No experience needed. You do not have to be funny, and you do not have to perform.
Free and open to everyone. Space is limited, so please register.
Led by Gina Rapaport, PCC, ICF-certified speaking and leadership coach and founder of The WOW Speaker (ginarapaport.com), in collaboration with speaking coach Kit Pang.
