Slides don't save lives
But you do, and this course will teach you how to tell that story—that pitch. Are you ready to become a better version of yourself?
Unlocking the storyteller
Everyone is a storyteller, some might be good at it, a few understand i’ts more than a soft-skill, it’s a must skill and only a handful of medical doctors and researchers will learn that more than storytelling, it’s story writing. Welcome to the Story Pitcher.
This live cohort will teach you how to harness the power of writing, storytelling, words. Unlock your inner ability to bring your work to more people, achieve more, save more lives.
We are all storytellers, but only a few train to become great.
And you, my friend, can become better;
trust us, we trained the best.
WHY NOW?
It’s important to have a compelling story now more than ever. Differentiate yourself by sharing a story that truly connects with your audience. By doing so, you can make a meaningful impact not only on your colleagues but also on the lives of your patients and others. A powerful story has the potential to be remembered and to make a real difference. A 60-slide IMRAD presentation won’t save lives, but a story backed by research can.
Stop answering:
“yeah, I think it went well”
and move to:
It went exactly as planned.
