Join a conversation about healthy
manhood in the modern world.
Hi, I’m Will.
I’m a creative communicator on a mission to help
others connect deeply. I create content, run workshops
and give talks to help you nail your
message and make every word count.
My story? Ten years ago I discovered slam poetry. Like you, I thought poetry was irrelevant in the ‘real world’. But my eyes were opened to something incredibly powerful. Within the constraints of two minutes, people had to use every word with precision to leave their message echoing in people’s minds the next day.
​
I fell in love with the craft of distilling a message down to its very essence. As I continued to write and speak in a broad variety of settings, I began to study leadership. I discovered I could cast vision, pitch for funding, produce creative content and help organisations engage powerfully with their audience. My background as a poet became my most effective leadership tool. I created Lead by Story to empower others to communicate with precision.
​
But your story is the one I’m interested in. Are you using it?
