InFLUENCE THROUGH STORY
InFLUENCE THROUGH STORY
WHO ARE WE?
FirstVoice is a full-service consultancy specializing in building influence via narrative. Since 1995 FirstVoice has coached leaders and their organizations to become more influential by consciously developing stories that are authentic and make people care.
We tell stories constantly - whether we are aware of it or not - because that is the way we think. Narrative is the fundamental way we make sense of our world. It’s essential that the stories we tell are effective and memorable, so we can successfully influence ourselves and our organization for the better.
“Bob is a powerful and intuitive coach. If you want to change fast, work with him.”
