Matthew Dicks X

The Speech Republic

Get ready for an exclusive evening with Matthew Dicks, one of America’s most compelling storytellers, as he explores the craft, power, and precision of unforgettable stories.

Hello, storyteller!

You already know the power of a well-told story. This evening offers you inspiration and conversation with a speaker whose work brings fresh energy to one of the most important questions in communication: how do we make people care?

Matthew Dicks is the internationally bestselling author of *Storyworthy* and *Stories Sell*, and a storytelling consultant to organizations including Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Salesforce, the World Bank, Yale, MIT, and Harvard.

 

Matthew isn't yet a household name in the Netherlands, which is exactly why we wanted to bring him in now. Matt combines research-backed frameworks, real-world relevance, and just the right amount of wit to make every moment memorable.

This is not a training session. It is an evening of fresh perspectives, practical inspiration, and conversation, created exclusively for you. We hope to see you there!

Warm regards,

The Speech Republic Team
