PepTalk's innovative new workshops have launched, and they are here to help your organisation transcend beyond the traditional keynote format. The concept is simple: by integrating storytelling, expert insights, and hands-on experience within a single session, your team acquires immediately applicable skills, fostering authentic and behavioural change. Not only that, we offer carefully designed follow-up content to ensure any actions from the workshop are long-lasting.

Story-led workshops

We know that stories stick. According to Stanford Graduate School of Business Professor Jennifer Aaker, stories are up to 22 times more memorable than facts or figures alone. Our brains are wired to remember stories, and listening to our experts tell theirs can benefit your team in three significant ways:

  1. Shaping Perceptions: When people listen to stories, they help them shape opinions about others and the world we live in. These stories can influence decisions, such as hiring someone, buying from them, or liking them. The stories you hear also impact how we feel about ourselves and others, which is vital for inclusion.
  2. Capturing Attention: Stories naturally draw people in and make them pay attention. When someone shares a story, you are likelier to slow down and engage with their message, allowing us to understand their insights more deeply.
  3. Inspiring Action: Stories have the power to move people and change behaviour. A compelling story can motivate us to take action, guiding us through an engaging journey that leads to conviction and change.

Using stories to change behaviours

A story is a connected set of events with a beginning, a middle, and an end. It's a journey that moves the listener. When the listener goes on that journey, they feel different, and the result is persuasion and sometimes action. The PepTalk team set out to answer the question: how do we ensure lasting change?

The solution is simple: our workshops pair a real-world expert with an experienced facilitator to drive genuine behaviour change through exercises and activities based on the story insights. This comes together in a 90-minute-long masterclass divided into three phases: inspire, translate, and activate.

Inspire

The workshop kicks off with objectives and an enlightening presentation from the expert, which ignites curiosity and sets a dynamic tone for the session.

Translate

Participants actively translate the high-level lessons into their personal contexts, applying a relevant framework to ensure practical application.

Activate

The workshop concludes with attendees refining their ideas with direct feedback from the expert and transforming insights into actionable outcomes.

PepTalk's experts and facilitators deliver sessions based on real-life learning and actionable insights. As Jennifer Aaker says, “Stories are not facts, figures, or less, and yet when facts and figures are interwoven into a story, it can pull at the audience both intellectually and emotionally.”
