Data-Driven Storytelling

Designed to help professionals use storytelling to drive readers to the desired conclusion.

Workshop Details

Workshop Description

Most professionals who collect data understand that it tells a story; however, when these same  professionals must use the data to tell the story to internal or external stakeholders, they often struggle,  believing that the story the data tells should be obvious. If this describes your team, we can help.  

Our interactive, customized onsite workshop teaches your team strategies to use the data to tell  compelling, engaging stories. 

Workshop Aims

After completing this course, your team should be able to: 

  • Understand the role of data in crafting and telling a story
  • Incorporate the elements of good storytelling
  • Engage their audience via storytelling
  • Use data to drive the conclusion

Optimize Content Relevance and Impact

Your team will learn how to conduct a thorough audience analysis to identify and deliver the most important content. Participants will learn to distill their presentations into a few impactful ideas or key insights, ensuring that every element, from data to visuals, reinforces these central messages.

Enhance Presentation Design and Flow:

Participants will be guided in designing presentations that are simple, clear, and logically structured to enhance narrative flow. This includes mastering the art of sequencing and transitioning content effectively to build a compelling case for audience action.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the format of the onsite and virtual workshops?
Our workshops are engaging, highly interactive, and completely customized! We use micro-learning techniques, in-class exercises, and collaborative breakout sessions to ensure a robust learning experience.
The onsite workshops run from two to five days, depending on the level of complexity of the documents your team writes and how much practice they need. The virtual sessions are typically 10 hours offered in two-hour segments; however, that can vary, depending on team size, team writing skill, and type of workshop.
We customize the course to focus on the types of documents your team writes and the skills they need to improve. Since all of our courses are based on readability studies, we provide your team with the latest tools and techniques to help them plan, write, and revise more effectively and efficiently.
The workshop provides multiple opportunities for participants to apply the concepts to their own writing. Practice sessions range from two to five per day in an onsite workshop and one per two-hour virtual session, depending on the workshop chosen and type of documents discussed.
We provide coaching services; we also help clients develop templates, style guides, and other types of reference documents. And we offer a communication audit, which can help you pinpoint your team’s real writing and review issues.
