Has a powerful speech ever given you goosebumps, or better still, moved you to tears?

What about a great one-liner that has you chuckling for days?

Words are powerful, and knowing how to construct a great story to convey the right message, in the right way, to the right people, is an art that few leaders care to master. Those who do can command a crowd, influence a room of decision-makers, or just sell the benefits of a new piece of tech to a room of sceptical employees.

On this episode of Mums on Cloud Nine I'm delighted to be joined by Tristan Lombard, the Director of Community at Provar Testing, to talk about the power of storytelling as a leader.

He provides expert insight and practical tips to help you improve your own storytelling skills, so that you can be a more effective leader, project manager and Salesforce admin.

Highlights from this episode:

(01:31) Helping people steward their own stories

(08:09) How to connect with your audience
