Ed’s Topics

In this workshop, participants will first watch Simon Sinek’s Ted Talk “Start with Why” and reflect on key questions such as what resonated with them in the talk, why people would want to do business with their company, and their personal story or unique value proposition. The workshop will focus on storytelling techniques that lead to action, covering the elements of a good story, crafting your story, handling objections in a constructive way, and delivering a positive “no.” Participants will engage in role plays to apply these concepts, followed by a post-workshop email summarizing key takeaways and resources to ensure immediate application of the learning.
