About this event

It's a tough market out there. Job uncertainty means that many of us face redundancy, are looking to set up on our own, or need to pivot our career in some way. At the very least, building our profile has become a necessity.

We believe that the ultimate de-risking tool in this climate is harnessing the power of your own story. Building awareness of your strengths and capabilities, before it becomes urgent.

We all struggle with directing our own story, but ironically it can become harder the more experienced we are. We aren't clear on what we really need people to know. We lack certainty as to what makes us different. And with a wealth of experience behind us, it becomes difficult to decide what to leave out.

---------------------------

At LookUP we help people grow through the power of story. Our founders, Matthew Hook and Caroline Keylock, have 45+ years of helping some of the biggest global brands and leaders drive success using storytelling, and we are now applying this expertise to help individuals find the confidence to tell their story.

WHAT DO I GET?

Insight and Guidance from Brilliant StoryTellers

We've interviewed some of the world's best storytellers, across script writers, authors, political speach writers, AI specialists and more. Their learnings help to form the LookUP approach, and you'll see clips of them across our sessions.

A Practical Framework to get your Brand Seen

We have built a proprietary LookUP approach that is used across all of our StoryTelling sessions, built to help you frame your story for any scenario and audience with ease.

A Connected Community of StoryTellers

The sesions are designed to be small and build your storytelling community. We will have a group whatsapp, and you'll get to work alongside other brilliant professionals also looking to harness their story.

---------------------------

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Each cohort has 4 weekly sessions across the month, each lasting an hour.

Each group will have no more than 12 people to promote collaboration.

You will have an allocated course buddy to work with & compare notes.

We will provide exercises and workbooks to complete between sessions.

Once developed, we will give you detailed feedback on your story.

You will have lifetime access to the recording of the sessions.

We will provide a whatsapp group for the cohort for Q&A.

You will be given a thorough guide to the proprietary LookUP Story Method.

COURSE FEEDBACK

We pride ourselves on having a 100% recommendation rate & consistent scoring of 9/10 for the courses and mentoring we provide.

“I’ve done so many different things in my career that I never know how to introduce myself. Having a clear framework to make those decisions is so, so helpful.”

“I used everything you showed us in preparing for the interview, and it went brilliantly. I’m now finally in the job I want, in a sector that I’m excited about.”

“This is the best and most useful training session I have been involved in for many years. Thank you so much.”

Frequently asked questions

What if I can't attend all the dates?

We will record all the sessions, so you will still be able to view what was covered & the groups discussion, and then work through the work books in your own time.

Does it matter which country I'm based in?

We have tried to time the sessions so that they work for most markets. It may be a little more challenging if you are based in Asia, so if you are interested in the sessions but cannot make the times, please let us know as we may run additional sessions for specific time zones.

Does it matter what level of experience I bring?

Our sessions are tailored for the needs of experienced professionals as well as those earlier in their careers.

Organized by

LookUP was founded by two consultants with almost 50 years experience in helping clients transform their businesses. These clients kept facing the same challenge: how do you find the time and energy to look UP in a world with financial, societal and workplace challenges that drive the opposite behaviour.

Frustrated by workshop solutions that lacked inspiration, innovation and impact, they decided to create LookUP to fill this gap in the market. Every product is informed by 20+ experts from diverse creative fields to give you a fresh point of view. From writers, to producers, to innovation specialists, we bring talent and expertise into the room digitally (and sometimes physically).
