A former screenwriter, news producer, and winner of international awards for storytelling in television, Jason Reid shows organizations and communicators how to sell their ideas, influence others, and build human connection through magnetic presentations, and strategic storytelling that inspires action.

Storytelling for businesses and non-profits needs to be strategic, purposeful and clear. Your story is the vehicle that transports your message so you need to know where you’re going.

Strategic Storytelling and Communications – Where Your Message Comes First 

Whether it’s a marketing or P.R. campaign, a high-stakes presentation, or even a visionary speech, you already know that effective communication requires you to tell a story.

But that’s just the beginning. For a story to be a powerful tool of influence it needs to send a clear and repeatable message to a specific audience. In short – it needs to be strategic and purposeful. 

Only by understanding your message and your audience can you begin to craft a story that makes a difference. Then, by creating your narrative in a way that connects with people both logically and emotionally, you can truly inspire your audience to action.

Jason can show your audience how they can craft their story to send the right message – a message that engages people and inspires them to action. But it doesn’t stop there. Jason also teaches powerful presentation techniques that can give any story a touch of Hollywood magic – making them memorable, funny, and immersive as well as authentic and natural.

Why settle for just a speaker or trainer when you can have a great storyteller who excels at both in-person and virtual environments?

Conference attendees have to take in a lot of information, and they learn best when they’re being entertained. They also need insight that’s useful, actionable, and memorable. Jason has it all covered.

Imagine a presentation or training workshop that provides the right mix of energy, fun, and big ideas. A presentation that helps make your conference or meeting something attendees will recommend to others.


We asked Jason to teach all our staff more about storytelling. Jason was willing to pivot to an online session that was smoothly delivered and kept our staff totally engaged! Jason worked with us to incorporate relevant examples of our work. It was a great session and we would recommend Jason for your training session.
