We Believe in the Power of Stories

We've seen it first hand. We've seen the frustration with analysis failing to land due to poor communication at the briefing stage, the confusion with dense and unstructured explanations or apathy with interesting but unemotional presentations.

We truly believe in the power and influence of Data Science and Research done well, but we also believe in the power of stories to bring our work alive and create lasting change for customers and our businesses. Our sole goal is to help individuals and teams become better communicators, storytellers and leaders and we want to help you. And we want to do this through our expertise and know-how:

Introducing Mathew

Our courses on Storytelling and Communication have been designed through consultation with Mathew David, a Professional Actor and Communications Coach.
Mathew holds a Masters in Acting for Stage, Screen and Radio from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and has worked with BBC Worldwide, BBC Wales, Starz, CBS, S4C and Welsh National Opera.
As well as consulting on course content, Mathew will also co-lead the training on 'Presenting Data with Confidence', bringing best practice from the world of Theatre on how to engage with your audience and control your nerves.

We're Flexible

We are happy to run training courses and offer consultancy at your office or at another venue that supports you or your team. We're also happy to run courses remotely over Zoom if circumstances dictate this.

​If you are an individual looking to attend a public course, a leader of a team looking to train your team in the softer side of Data Science or simply in need of Data Science consultancy, please get in touch and we would be happy to curate a schedule that best supports you.

Course Feedback

" Even though I thought I knew a lot already, I've learned things I'd never even considered (that are awesome skills!)

"I thought the course was very well presented and the topic fitted together well. Concepts were also very coherently explained.

"Great opportunity to go back to first principles with how to deliver and prepare presentations.

"The course has helped a lot to clarify the important facts about presenting. I couldn't wish for more.

"Very thorough; all aspects of storytelling had been well thought through and were clearly communicated. Engaging exercises too, which helped drive home key points.
