Your brand story ― how it resonates in the public heart and mind―is your most valuable competitive advantage. Yet, few professionals really know how brand storytelling works, how to manage it, and how to use brand storytelling strategically. Created by Peter de Kuster this groundbreaking Storyteller in One Day seminar provides the illusive and compelling answer. Using studies drawn from the great stories in the movies, literature, art, life and powerhouse brand stories in business, Peter shows that the most successful brand stories are those that most effectively correspond to fundamental patterns in the unconscious mind known as archetypes. The What is Your Story? seminar provides tools and strategies to:
• Implement a proven storytelling system for identifying the most appropriate and leverageable archetypes for any professional and/or company
• Harness the power of the archetype to align your brand story to sustain competitive advantage
