Leadership Storytelling Programmes

Narrative-Enabled Leader® 

Technical expertise gets people into leadership. Communication is often what undermines their impact once they get there. 

Narrative-Enabled Leader® is our flagship leadership storytelling programme, designed to help leaders become powerful communicators through the practical application of storytelling techniques and structures.

Participants learn how to communicate ideas more clearly, build credibility, influence stakeholders, navigate change and develop a stronger leadership presence. 
Whether they’re presenting a recommendation, leading a team, communicating a strategy or navigating uncertainty, participants leave with practical tools they can apply immediately. 

OUR PROGRAMMES

Seven modules of online, self-directed learning covering the fundamentals of story-based leadership, including the development and use of personal Origin Stories and the art of shaping a forward-looking Quest that will inspire and energise colleagues and teams.

Why the rabbit?

You might be wondering that.
Well, ‘rabbit’ is a verb that means to talk:
Let’s meet up for a good old rabbit.
It comes from the rhyming slang rabbit and pork.

It's also an idiom:

Pull a rabbit out of the hat
which means creating a solution to a problem, against the odds and often quickly. So if you get the rabbit right, your successes will multiply.
Like rabbits.
