Your Leadership Story: Discover It. Shape It. Share It.

Presenter: Jyo Maan
2-hour webinar  | $55
June 17 from 1:00-3:00 PM Eastern

In conservation, we often lead with data, policy, and science—but stories are what drive understanding, trust, and action. This interactive session is designed to build your storytelling skills as a practical leadership tool. You’ll learn how to craft and deliver clear, compelling narratives that resonate with different audiences and support your goals.

Through guided instruction, examples, and hands-on practice, you’ll apply proven storytelling frameworks—including the Hero’s Journey and Pixar’s story structure—to shape messages that inspire and connect. You’ll also have opportunities to practice storytelling in a supportive environment and receive feedback you can immediately use in your work.

Learning Objectives:

  • Apply storytelling as a practical leadership and communication skill in conservation contexts
  • Build structured, engaging narratives using established storytelling frameworks (e.g., Hero’s Journey, Pixar model)
  • Integrate storytelling techniques into your work with teams, partners, and communities

This session offers reflection, insight, and an invitation into a deeper workshop experience.
