Making pitches that create communities

A workshop/webinar with Jonathan Talbott
(link for live stream: http://bit.ly/Learn2Pitch)

Ideas don’t turn into reality on their own.
Great ideas need supporters, for example, the users, the champions, the teams and even the money guys. These people, and other followers, form the community around the idea. You can create communities by telling repeatable stories every time you pitch.

This workshop is designed for startups, designers and hackathon teams who need to find ways to build communities around their ideas. We’ll work on applying storytelling techniques to pitches, so that you can create a stable, world changing community around your idea.

Jonathan Talbott is the head speakers’ coach for 4 different TEDx conferences, is a communication advisor at incubators/accelerators across Europe (World Startup Factory, Orange Grove, European Venture Program, for example), and runs programs for communicating ideas and values at organizations like Nationale Nederlanden, Cordaid and the National Museum of Qatar. He teaches courses on presentation and persuasion skills as a guest lecturer at the Rotterdam School of Management, Delft University of Technology and Utrecht University. He works with leaders and teams at banks, large corporates, non-profits, and tech companies to create presentations that initiate decisions, increase stakeholder involvement and generate investment.
He founded TIP (Talbott International Presentations) link: www.tipresentations.nl in 2012 in order to stop one of the world’s great evils: “Death by PowerPoint”.

The workshop will be in English. And of course we have a livestream if you can't make it: http://bit.ly/Learn2Pitch
