I'm a storytelling expert who leads business storytelling workshops which show others how to tell perfect stories about what they do and how they help people.
As part of this, I like to ask people what they do for a living.
Then I work with them in business storytelling workshops and show them that they don’t do what they think they do. They do something a lot better.

Business storytelling workshops
Most people essentially read their job title off their business card.
“I’m a Senior Manager, Level 7.”
“No, you’re not,” I say. “What do you really do?”
“Well, I manage a group of people.”
“Really?” I say. “And what do they do?”
“They put our product in boxes.”
“What’s your product?”
“Pharmaceuticals. We mail them out.”
“So you’re in charge of a mail order prescription warehouse?”
“Exactly.”
“So that’s what you really do. You help sick people get better. When your product arrives in a mailbox, the recipient is so happy. And if you offer your product at a discount …”
“We do,” the manager interrupts happily.
“Then you’re really special,” I conclude.
This is the malady that hinders U.S. businesses from great storytelling. The passion and emotion of great works is pre-empted by focus on numbers and widgets.
What do you do? What do you REALLY do? Dave's business storytelling workshops help you figure it out. CALL 1-800-557-8166 to book Dave.
