This page is for anyone looking to sharpen their story skills, but if you prefer professional help, check out work with Nick or just say hello.
Business storytelling is art, science and strategy. If you are looking to go deep, start with Story.Business.

“Grow up, Nick. You aren’t ruthless enough to build a business. You’d hate the sleazy selling.”

The Business Storytelling Glossary lists the concepts, ideas and definitions that use in my work. Your mileage will vary.

Papers, books and references related to storytelling science. You’ll need to grab a coffee before you get stuck in.
Rants and Recollections
Most of these mini-courses have been brutally extracted from my podcast. No prisoners have been taken. Your mileage will vary.

In 2020, I published a series of 19 podcasts on The Hero’s Journey, as revealed by Joseph Campbell in his 1949 classic, The Hero With A Thousand Faces.

An 8-podcast series giving an overview of Robert Mckee’s view on story… particularly in relation to his excellent book, Storynomics.

In 2021, I published a series of podcasts on the Mistakes Founders Make … at least in terms of story. (Some of them got a little ‘ranty’!)

Seth will be joining me for my 1,000th podcast in June.
“…if you want to engage with people emotionally, you’ve got to let them do most of the work of telling (the story)…”

A short (slightly rant) series of podcasts about business myths I still see all the time. First released in November 2021.

The Memory Palace is where I keep the ideas and insights that matter most. It’s a little weird, but here’s a dumb example.
Podcast & Paid Course

No ads. No guests. Just me thinking out loud for 5 minutes every day. Rough, raw and sometimes just plain dumb.

Leverage the simple power of storytelling, simplicity and momentum.
