At StoryReady, we collaborate with companies and individuals to create impactful narratives for professional success. When someone asks, "Tell me about yourself," how do you respond? Do you ramble or leave out the most relevant information? Is your story an authentic, compelling reflection of who you are and what you’ve accomplished? Knowing your story – whether you are an individual or a business – and being able to articulate that story with confidence and clarity is essential to self-awareness and business success. With her company StoryReady, Founder Janece Shaffer shares her experience as an award-winning playwright, marketer, communications strategist and content developer to help clients connect to their story, to get story-ready. The StoryReady team teaches easy-to-apply storytelling strategies via joyous, interactive, customizable workshops or through one-on-one story coaching which features deep-dive interviews and evocative writing prompts designed to grow clarity and confidence. No more panic or stalling “uhms” when it’s time to speak about yourself or your work. In addition to strengthening storytelling and improvisational skills, StoryReady workshops are ideal for team building as well as modeling authenticity and transparency. "Everyone has a story, and I want those I work with to leave knowing that their story is their differentiator." -- Janece Shaffer
