Communication becomes leadership when it moves people. This workshop explores how to transform ideas into action through persuasive speaking, storytelling, and empathetic connection. Participants will learn how to use narrative as a leadership tool—one that builds bridges between communities, inspires momentum, and strengthens influence.

This session will explore:
• Persuasive speaking techniques
• Storytelling for leadership
• How to connect ideas to action
• Using narrative to bridge communities
• Adapting messages for diverse audiences

Designed for emerging and current leaders, this workshop helps students elevate their communication skills to lead with clarity, purpose, and impact.

Each workshop is offered twice on the same day—once in the afternoon and once in the evening—so you can choose the session that best fits your schedule. 

All SPS students are encouraged to attend.
