Bespoke Projects

Bigger Than a Workshop

Not every communication challenge can be solved with a one-off workshop. Sometimes you need something more tailored and more transformational.

Sometimes a keynote or masterclass is exactly what’s needed.

And sometimes, it’s bigger than that.

Sometimes you want to lift the communication skills of an entire leadership team. Sometimes you’re preparing senior leaders for a roadshow, a strategy rollout or a series of high-stakes presentations. Sometimes you want your people to sound sharper, more human, more memorable and far less like they swallowed a corporate handbook.

That’s where bespoke projects come in.

I’m often invited in to design and deliver tailored programs that meet the moment. It might be an intensive week. It might run over a month. Sometimes it unfolds over three to six months, giving people the chance to learn, practise, refine and actually change the way they communicate.

These programs are built around what your team most needs. That could include storytelling, presentation skills, humour, stagecraft, executive presence and what I call X Factor: the magic that makes a message land and last.

We can combine my keynotes, workshops, coaching and feedback processes in a way that works for your people, your message and your deadline.

In other words, there are many ways to slice this. But the goal is always the same: to help your team communicate with more clarity, conviction and heart.

If you’re looking for something tailored, strategic and a little bit special, please get in touch.

BOOK YAMINI NOW
The ability to create a connection and shared under- standing with another person is a valuable human gift. The art of storytelling is powerful in creating that connection and understanding. Yamini Naidu is a master in the art of helping leaders to build sto- ries that create a vision for the future, creating con- nection and trust. I have worked with Yamini for eight years and I am constantly guided by the princi- ples she taught me as I know it will help me build a compelling message that people can relate to.

Yamini is a wonderful storyteller, mentor and human being. Her wisdom and charisma are infectious and she is guaranteed to bring light into any gathering.

Tania de Jong AM, Entrepreneur, Speaker, Soprano at Creative Universe, Creativity Australia, MindMedicine Australia & Creative Innovation
We brought in Yamini Naidu into AHI because we thought we could build storytelling skill... although for many of us, to be truthful, we didn’t quite believe we had the ability. In less than 2.5 hours, Yamini convinced us otherwise. She helped us take a nar rative of nearly nothingness and help us make it extraordinary. She showed us the beauty of a good story and the science that drives it. It is a skill that will now sit with all of our participants forever... it will help us in our work, it will help us commu- nicate with our colleagues...and it will help me get my teenage children to clean their room. With great thanks, Yamini.

Mark Henderson, Chief Executive Officer, AHI (Australasian Housing Institute)
One of the greatest enduring skills of leaders is their ability to convey messages and learnings through Storytelling. It has been with us for centuries and will remain for many centuries to come. Yamini is to storytelling as apple is to pie. They go together in a natural way. The ability to convey messages through stories, with humour and feeling makes them memorable. Yamini makes us all better story- tellers and therefore leaders.

Peter Baines OAM, Founder, Hands Across Water
I have been privileged to have a long association with Yamini. She brings a positive spirit and infectious energy to her work and always leaves behind a lasting impression. More than 10 years on, people from my old team still comment on Yamini’s engaging educational sessions, with great content and challenging fun exercises that have made a real difference to their ability to connect with people in their lives.
