The messages your organisation gives out have never been more important. But you need to be clever about getting your message across when there are so many other organisations trying to grab the attention of customers. Businesses that spend more on strong messaging usually come out ahead against the quieter voices, but is getting noticed merely a matter of how much you spend on advertising ? Not necessarily.
In RSM’s two-day course Storytelling for Business Success, you will learn the principles of storytelling and what you need to do to harness its power.

Skill in storytelling – creating a compelling narrative around your actions or your purpose – gives you the power to be heard above louder voices. It inspires people to think along with you. And that’s where this RSM Executive Education programme on storytelling comes in. Over the course of two days, Terence Barry, an experienced corporate storyteller, shows how you can harness the power of narrative to succeed in business by inspiring your employees and colleagues, winning more customers and growing your operation.
You are always looking to achieve more from managing your team; winning more new business; or getting more impact from your marketing. Whether you’re an employee, self-employed, starting out with a big idea or already working in management, you can improve the way you communicate about your business and win more followers. This programme will give you the early storytelling skills that you can continue to build over time. You gain the knowledge, tools and insights so you can improve your effectiveness as a storyteller as you continue to invest in practising after the programme.
During Storytelling for Business Success you will learn from Terence Barry. Occasionally we may substitute other faculty members according to the content of the programme and their availability.
