    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    • How is the course delivered?

    • The course is delivered on our membership platform. You will have a private page so you can rest assured your work is kept confidential. Each module features a short video with micro-teaching, abundant real-world examples to keep you engaged, and opportunities to engage with a community, including other past and present participants of the course, the Persuasive Communicator's Club. You get to apply your learning right away after each module so you can expect to be healthily challenged and improve fast.

    • I have questions mid-way the program. How will I get support?

    • You can reach out to me easily via the weekly Q&A. You can bounce off ideas as your craft your stories at early stage, and get constructive feedback in the personalized feedback.

    • Why did you create this course? Do all leaders need this?

    • It's a resounding Yes. After years of partnering senior leaders around the globe, I have found that what was preventing them from better results is the inability to get buy-in. Being the most intelligent is important, but the ability to persuade others to adopt new strategies is even more so. And the challenge commonly occurs when they meet people of different backgrounds. With our workplaces increasingly becoming diverse (with five generations in the workplace), storytelling will help you get buy-in quicker and with less heartache.

    • Do you deliver this program in-person or for teams?

    • The following applies to online program for individuals.

      For customized team programs, check out our Corporate Training.

    • I'm having a very busy period and might not be able to complete within three months. Can I still join?

    • Yes, you can. The instructional materials are accessible for life. Simply need to complete the assignments to earn the credential. It will take you 1-2 hours a week to complete the coursework.

    • I see bonus video tasks included. Do I need to do it?

    • You'll get feedback on your written stories. The video tasks are stretch tasks for you to deliver the stories with more confidence. However, I understand different people have different comfort levels with speaking on screen and I used to be very stiff and awkward on screen as well. Helping you feel safe is my priority so you are welcome to share your videos when you feel comfortable to take up the challenge.

    • What are your guarantees?

    • Once you enroll in the course, my mission is to help you improve your storytelling skills and ability to communicate, persuade and influence. Based on the course design, most people will be able to see results rapidly. Some tasks can make you feel uncomfortable and that is understandable. I use to have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) when I have to speak in front of people! Should you require additional support, I will personally work with you until you get a solid grasp of the concepts.
