At International LinkedIn Meetup Odense #11, we’ll combine guided networking with an inspiring keynote workshop by Irina Suvorova — "How to Use Stories to Express Yourself"
It’s an evening to connect, share experiences, and grow your network in an open and welcoming atmosphere.
💬 About the Workshop
In this interactive session, you will learn how to use everyday experiences to connect with others. Storytelling is the oldest form of communication and has been used for centuries to bring people together.
We will explore how to turn your own experiences into engaging narratives that reveal your values, emotionally engage listeners, and influence in a natural way. This friendly, hands-on workshop is designed for anyone who wants to become a better communicator by sharing authentic and compelling stories.
The workshop is especially aimed at:
- Professionals preparing for job interviews or important presentations
- Anyone eager to improve public speaking and presentation skills
