Mike Brian: Transactional Storytelling - Evolve Your Stories from Entertaining to Engaging

As speakers, we all tell stories—but are our stories working for us? According to Mike Brian, creator of NSA’s Last Story Standing competition, storytelling is one of the most underdeveloped skills in the speaking world today. In this interactive workshop, Mike will guide you through his Story Cadencing System—a proven framework to help you discover, develop, and deliver your stories with more power and purpose. You’ll also learn how to add a Transactional Element to your stories, evolving them from entertaining to engaging—so they don’t just capture attention, they drive action. Whether you’re an experienced speaker or still on your way, this session will help you elevate your storytelling game and turn more opportunities into results.
