    Storytelling workshop

    Storytelling workshop: one session, one story that holds up

    A workshop is the fastest way to move storytelling from idea to practice. In half a day or a full day your team builds the story it needs tomorrow: a pitch, a client presentation, a kick-off or the brand story. Jan works with short exercises, plenty of practice and direct feedback — in-company at your office, during a team day or at an external venue in the Netherlands.

    What the workshop looks like

    • A short, sharp framework: why some stories actually stick
    • Work on one concrete story you need this week
    • Practice in small groups with feedback from Jan
    • A story you can use immediately by the end of the session
    • Optional short follow-up session to keep it sharp

    Ideal for

    • Team days, kick-offs and off-sites
    • Sales and marketing teams with a concrete pitch or campaign
    • Communications teams sharpening a brand story
    • Management teams making a new direction explainable

    Frequently asked questions

    What's the difference between a workshop and a training?

    A workshop is shorter and works towards one concrete outcome, such as a pitch or brand story. A training digs deeper into technique and repetition, often across several sessions.

    Can the workshop run during our team day?

    Yes, it's often booked as a programme block during a team day or off-site, anywhere from two hours to a full day.

    How many participants can join?

    Up to roughly 30 keeps it interactive. For larger groups a keynote with exercises is usually the better format.

    Do you work with our own cases?

    Always. We select the cases and stories to work on together beforehand.
