Having obtained 2 degrees from LSE and the University of Strasbourg, Danny set up his own storytelling company with a couple of friends.

He wrote the short film script The Divorce and went onto direct the indie feature film “After Louise” and is currently developing more scripts under the guise of The Scheinmann Brothers.

SPEAKING TOPICS

Inspiration

Love is all you need

Why listening to your heart will take you higher than listening to your bank balance.

One day Danny Scheinmann woke up in a clinic in Ecuador. He couldn’t remember how he got there or even what year it was. A doctor told him he’d been in a bus crash and that his girlfriend had been killed.  Danny tells the story of how the tragedy led him to write his best-selling novel Random Acts Of Heroic Love and why in the real world gold is where the heart is. He asks if it’s possible for organisations to go beyond ‘purpose’ and find love?  And was Tasso right when he said “Any time not spent on love is time wasted”.

Communication

How not to be boring.

It’s 3pm. You’re at a conference. The audience have sat through 6 hours of deathly powerpoint. Half of them are jetlagged and drifting off and the other half have eaten too much in the hotel buffet at lunch and need the loo. And now it’s your turn to speak. Your message is vital. You want to engage, motivate and excite them with your ideas and entertain them on the way. How are you going to win them over? Maybe you’re pitching to a customer, speaking to your team or presenting to your boss.

Master storyteller Danny Scheinmann will reveal the secrets of how not to be boring.

Storytelling

The art and heart of Storytelling

How good storytelling can transform the way you do business.

Everyone loves a good story. Stories are like data with a soul. They show your values in action. They are memorable and engaging. Using real stories from the organisations he has worked with Danny will show how stories work, why they work and when to use them to the greatest effect.  He will explain how to structure a story, how to use story archetypes and how to win hearts and minds.

NOTE: Danny has never given the same speech twice. He will engage with you first and tailor his talks to your needs.
