Yet, it will require your full dedication to follow every creative exercise and to dive into the process.In this course I will share with you the stories and concepts that have helped me in my career as a public speaker and which have ultimately lead to me to speak at TEDx University of Piraeus and TEDx Bacău in 2015.Develop your storytelling skills and at the end of the course:You will fully grasp the power of your story so that you can move the hearts of your audienceYou will learn how to genuinely craft and archive inspiring stories from your personal experienceYou will master the art of telling stories that will keep your audience on the edge of their seatsTherefore at the end of the course you will know how to Engage, Inspire and Educate your Audience using Stories
