Connect to the World

We help companies and institutions write English communication that works. Based in Cologne, we offer consultancy, editing and training. Read on and find out how we can help you with your business or marketing texts, help you prepare persuasive presentations and correct your academic papers.

Storytelling Workshop

Want to improve the attention paid to your published research? Join us in a storytelling workshop. In it, we will first explore the essential role story plays in our communities. Together we’ll then peel away the layers of great stories to discover the techniques and ingredients that fuel them. We’ll practice the tools needed to craft narratives that come to life in the minds of an audience and explore how to apply these skills to a chosen field. Whether you are conveying the value of academic research or sharing a vision within a company or community, storytelling and getting the narrative right can play a vital role. Explore the topic with us.
potentially 16th May (Corona permitting): 10:00 – 17:30 in 53604 Bad Honnef.

COACHING

If you prefer to work on a one-to-one basis – and this often makes sense when writing – then why not sign up for a half day of writing coaching. We’ll read your text in advance, ask some background questions and then prepare a coaching session for you. We meet either at your workplace or at our office in Cologne.

Presentation coming up? Take the opportunity to come up with a good concept and practice your delivery.

If this sounds like something you need then contact us.

STYLE GUIDES

Most organisations have several writers – so how can you sound like one voice, one brand? If you need to establish some guidelines for your written material then let us help you develop a simple style guide. This will serve as a useful guide for all your writers. We’ll offer workshops for your writing team and ensure you sound like one voice.
