This has been the most amazing module that should be rolled out across the bank. The was that the module is structured is very useful. I was engaged and awake throughout the session. Mimi is awesome.

The context provided in the session, allowed the attendee to practically frame existing situations in a clearer context. and i believe that the outcomes will provide clarity when sharing ideas or presentations or even when just putting a point across.

Mimi Kalinda is such an inspiring leader! She has a strong presence about her and has this unique ability to connect with her audience. The session and its content was relevant and interactive. The information share was valuable and I am looking forward to using it in my next presentation.

This was a really interactive session. It was also a much needed one for most of us who get flustered easily and not know how to use our voice to convey what’s important. Mimi was absolutely delightful. I wish we had more time with her as i felt this module was so much more helpful and insightful and would help as be more effective as leaders.

At S&L, we're passionate about the power of storytelling.

Our workshops, e-courses, podcast, and blog are designed to help you master this essential skill and take your business to the next level.

Our storytelling in-person and virtual workshops, masterclasses and customised experiences help leaders answer the following pertinent questions:

How do we not just communicate facts and statistics to our stakeholders, but connect with them at a deeper level?

How do we not just inform our audiences about our organisations but make them truly care about what we do?

How can we tell a consistent and inspiring narrative, inside and outside our organisations?

How do we get our colleagues to not just have to hear our stories, but actively want to hear them?

How do we become memorable to our clients and/or customers when there’s so much “noise” in the marketplace?

How do we incentivize people to take action and make them commit to working with us?

How do we influence perceptions about our personal and professional brands?
