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, 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.
