'Weaving Stories Together' NSW Conference 23 -25 July

Coaching for Storytellers
Gael Cresp from the Vic Guild will be travelling to the NSW conference and offering coaching for storytellers.

Gael describes the workshop in these words ...

Assisting storytellers by listening and praising - some ways to improve not only the telling of students, co-workers and colleagues but at the same time enhance your own skills.

This workshop is based on the writings of Doug
Lipman. Participants need to be willing to share stories with the group.

Expected outcomes for participants:
The ability to see how to allow the person seeking coaching to direct the experience and so get exactly what he or she wanted from the session.

An appreciation of the role of active listening in enhancing all
storytelling experiences.

An understanding of how to teach by building on the existing strengths of
those who ask for assistance.
