Workshops
My graphic design and writing workshops are a fun, interactive way to expand your team's capabilities and knowledge.
Starting in October of 2024, I will offer the following workshops:
Elevate Your Slideshow: Graphic Design and Persuasive Writing Essentials (1-hour)
This workshop weaves together rhetorical theory, modern-day case studies, and functional tips to not only expand your team's abilities but also provide frameworks to critically assess business communications situations.
Topics we'll cover:
- Audience analysis
- Graphic design fundamentals for non-designers
- Writing persuasively
- The psychology of slideshows
- Using storytelling as a tool
- Modifying templates
Attendees will participate in individual and group exercises to build practical design and writing skills that stick.
Optional: Before the workshop, I will hold a 30-minute call with the client to discuss the nuances of their industry, organization, and employees. I will then modify the workshop to fit the organization's specific goals and needs.
