How We Help

Focusing on individual growth, we build confidence, develop communication skills

and break down barriers that hinder organisational performance.

We have a passion for helping others grow.

Through great training by great trainers, we empower individuals to find their voice, face challenges and develop the skills to communicate with clarity and impact. We are committed to inspiring people to improve and push themselves to do and be better in all aspects of their work and life.

Unlike traditional training, our innovative, expert-led approach using storytelling techniques sets us apart. Focusing on individual growth as the foundation of business success, we support personal and professional development while removing communication barriers that hinder organisational performance.

Our mission is to deliver high-quality, transformative training that helps individuals build confidence, break down barriers and develop the communication skills needed to lead, inspire and influence.

We collaborate with our clients to help them overcome their organisational challenges through engaging, expert-led training, empowering and enabling their people to communicate confidently and connect with their audiences.

13 TIMES

We specialise in training and coaching, providing courses, webcasts, and masterclasses in storytelling, presentation, and facilitation skills. We collaborate with you to enhance your teams’ communication and leadership abilities.

For example, you may need support to help your talented technical staff effectively communicate complex ideas to less technical stakeholders. We provide bespoke (and off-the-shelf) training programmes to address this challenge, build confidence and improve your technical teams’ communication so they better engage with their audience.

We envision a world where everyone has the confidence and skills to communicate with impact and inspire others.

We collaborate with L&D teams in companies across the UK and internationally.

We provide training and development to help you drive your teams’ performance and meet organisational objectives.

We help your teams overcome communication barriers and perform at their best. Through practical training, we show them how to apply storytelling tools and techniques so they can share ideas clearly, connect more effectively, and deliver results that align with your organisation’s goals.

As a result, your people are empowered to lead confidently, drive positive change, influence key stakeholders and communicate complex messages clearly.

From Technology, Communication and Information, Finance and Banking, and Healthcare, to Manufacturing/Engineering and Legal, Health & Safety and Compliance – we work with a wide range of sectors where clear, confident communication can make all the difference to how teams connect, deliver and succeed.
