Testimonials
“My questions were: how to make a story concise and to the point? ‘Sell’ projects better (internally)? These questions were amply answered in the storytelling workshop. The course had a clear structure, lots of practice opportunities and there was a lot of interaction. This was very instructive. The trainer was a pleasant and experienced teacher. He knows his story/profession very well.”
