10 Secrets of Virtual Storytelling
A Guide To Help You Give Better Online Presentations
COVID-19 has attacked many weaknesses in the world and it continues to cause chaos and disruption everywhere, but as many of us are confined to working in our home offices, I have noticed another weakness that Coronavirus it is exposing – our ability (or lack of) to give presentations virtually.
So for the first time ever, I have recorded an extended seminar in my home office, sharing a collection of the best pieces of communications advice I have picked up from some of the best speakers in the world about virtual storytelling.
Anyway, I just thought it might be helpful to share with you some tips I have found for building your confidence, bringing data to life, telling better stories faster – and more importantly, connecting with whatever audience is at the other side of that tiny little camera.

4yLove this video, thanks for sharing your ideas Jeremy Connell-Waite. It comes at a perfect time too, for me and many others no doubt. I'm just in the process of switching loads of in-person course content to online and come to the realisation that it's not just a case of chunking stuff up and switching the exercises up, it needs something more.

Brilliant piece of work. Thanks for sharing your mind with us Jeremy!
Creating new technology-enabled businesses that target net zero.
4yLove this! Thanks so much for putting it together Jeremy Connell-Waite I think this way of consuming, sharing and discovering knowledge is going to be a much more of the norm of doing business. We have been forced into it right now, but once we get back to some sense of normality I think it will continue. The energy cost of bringing disparate people together in a room is so high and will continue to be so for years to come. It has happened in education and entertainment, business is next.
