Storytelling 101
The best story wins. It wins attention, it wins investment and it wins media coverage. Curious Public’s Storytelling Workshop helps you understand how the principles of good storytelling can help you stand out. We get you working with each other to practice storytelling. And then we help you apply those lessons to your work.
Clear Writing
Curious Public’s Clear Writing Workshop is a hands-on course that helps you turn complex writing into clear writing that educates, engages and activates audiences. You’ll learn the principles of clear writing, how to identify unclear writing and how to overcome bad habits. Along the way, we’ll also touch on the basics of good storytelling and the secret to writing with purpose. The course includes a take-home editing assignment.
Media Training (for Beginners or Advanced)
The communications landscape has changed a lot, but media is still the best way to get your story out there. Whether you’re showing thought leadership, introducing a new product or service, or defending your point of view, navigating media is tricky—especially when you’re trying to deliver a 20-second sound bite. That’s where we come in.

The Art of Presenting
In this 3-hour workshop, participants will learn the strategies and skills needed to craft and deliver a memorable presentation. This interactive session gives participants a chance to work collaboratively and creatively while putting into practice storytelling and public speaking.
Communications Planning
In the sage words of Yogi Berra, if you don’t know where you’re going, then you’ll end up someplace else. You could have the most powerful story in the world, but how do you know it’s going to take your organization where you want it to go? Curious Public’s Communications Planning Workshop gives you a way to think structurally about any communications activity you can think of—from a simple social media post to a full-blown campaign.
Elevate Your Elevator Pitch
In Partnership with Corporate Speech Consultants
Nothing is harder than giving the ‘elevator pitch’ about yourself – a brief, impactful description of what you do, and why it counts. That’s not your fault. You know yourself, and what you do, too well. But you’re not a writer, and you’re not a presenter. You’re a leader. And that’s where we come in.
Give the Speech of Your Life
In Partnership with Corporate Speech Consultants
Whether you’re an aspiring leader who wants to get more attention, or a seasoned leader who wants to shake things up a little – sometimes, a great speech is just the way to do it. We work with you to write something incredible, and polish your performance so you stand out.
