We live in an ever changing world where traditional professional development can’t keep pace with new challenges. How we learned to communicate yesterday is out of date today. Setting yourself apart from the competition can be frustrating and formidable. Our network of mentors at Sheffield Institute will help prepare you to stay on top of the ever changing world of communications, media and technology…..your time is now to set yourself apart.
Strategic Narratives
A two-day course designed to immerse participants in the experience and technique of narratives as a more effective and efficient way to communicate.
Narrative Fluency™
A seminar that prepares you to converse confidently in controlled conversations using Narrative Maps™ as your primary guide.
The Art of the Elevator Speech
Everyone advocates a more concise and compelling message, yet few people have one and can master it. Small groups are prepared in real-life scenarios to deliver their one-minute pitch.
Active Listening
Effective communicators hear more. Participants learn techniques to focus on listening for the most important elements of their conversations.
The most effective presentations are conversations. PowerPoint has become the fatal flaw of professionals. This seminar teaches you how to abandon the deck and turn the presentation into a compelling narrative.
Selling with Stories
The art of persuasion starts with engaging an audience in the most meaningful way. Stories are the most effective way to win people over and give them a message that sticks.
