Wake Up Call: How to speak to your team in a way that actually lands
BCI Webinar
When you’re leading a team, it’s easy to default to information.
Updates. Targets. Timelines. Strategy. Slides.
It feels professional. It feels safe.
But information alone rarely builds trust – and when leaders hide behind it, teams can feel disconnected.
In this practical webinar, spoken word artist and leadership storytelling specialist Oliver Davy will explore how to turn information into connection when you speak.
You’ll learn:
During the session, you’ll be guided through a short writing exercise to help you shape a brief story from your own experience – something real, grounded, and relevant that you could use in your next team meeting.
If you regularly stand up in front of your team and want your words to connect, not just inform, this session is for you.
