Big Berlin Hack

Schlaflose Nächte? Schweißausbrüche? Performancedruck? Du bist nicht allein! Öffentliches Sprechen zählt zu den häufigsten (oft heimlichen) Ängsten unter Erwachsenen.
Die gute Nachricht: Überzeugend vor anderen zu sprechen ist eine Fähigkeit, die jeder und jede lernen kann: Introvertierte, Schüchterne und Menschen mit Redeangst können über sich hinauswachsen. Gute Sprecher*innen können herausragende Sprecher*innen werden. Ziel ist es, überzeugend, authentisch und situationsgerecht vor anderen zu reden und den eigenen Inhalten (selbstbewusst) adäquate Beachtung zu verschaffen.

Erfolgreich und selbstbewusst Pitchen

Strategie ist Magie auf Vorstandsebene. Wait, what? So oder so ähnlich ist wohl das landläufige Klischee der Strategiearbeit. Dabei kann Strategie auch praxisnah, pragmatisch und überall in der Organisation gelebt werden.

Du willst regelmäßig interessante Beiträge zur Selbst- und Produktpräsentation veröffentlichen? In diesem kreativen Seminar entwickeln wir individuelle Social Media-Strategien mithilfe von Arbeitstechniken aus dem Storytelling. Diese erleichtern dir, einen für deine Zielgruppe interessanten Auftritt zu gestalten.

Social Media-Strategien für Kreative

First the basics: What does it mean to be a cultural or creative entrepreneur or to work independently as an artist? How can I turn my artistic-creative activity into a profitable business model? Do I stay solo and free or do I prefer to work in a team and collaboratively? And what is the right type of company for this? Where do I have to register? What about contracts, (e-)invoices, general terms and conditions, taxes and the artists' social security fund? How do I structure my offer and to whom do I address it to?
