Description

The Power of Clear Communication: How to Influence, Inspire, and Motivate Action 

Featuring Guest Speaker, Rob Hughes

Great communicators make people feel seen, heard, and understood—and storytelling is the fastest way to do it. Whether you're leading a team, pitching an idea, or building relationships, the way you frame your story shapes how people respond. In this session, you’ll learn a practical storytelling framework to instantly connect with your audience, inspire action, and communicate with clarity.


After this session, participants will be able to...

  • Structure Your Message for Impact - Use a simple, three-part storytelling framework to clarify your message and engage your audience.
  • Inspire Action In Others - Learn how to position your message in a way that builds trust and makes it easy for people to say yes.
  • Eliminate Confusion and Make Your Words Stick - Identify and fix common communication mistakes that cause people to tune out.
