Description
This is a 60-minute conversation about public storytelling. You bring three questions and a notebook. Together, we’ll explore ways to
prepare, practice and present on big stages and in conference rooms. We’ll talk about how to create a mental teleprompter, tap
into audience empathy and utilize feedback. In one hour, we’ll produce a self-help checklist to deepen your storytelling ability.
Dr. MacInnis was formerly a member of the Trudeau Centre Advisory Board. He is a scientist and storyteller. The first person to explore the ocean beneath the North Pole, he was among the first to dive to the Titanic. A motivational speaker at IBM, Visa, Rolex, Toyota, Microsoft and the US Naval Academy, he’s hosted and written radio and television programs for CBS, CBC and the Discovery Channel. Currently, he’s producing a podcast called Beautiful Minds.
