Hey, my name is Matteo Cassese, and I help business people like you:

  • Deliver TED-level talks & presentations.  On stage, I want you to be attractive, persuasive, and charismatic.
  • Run great meetings.  You must show clarity, confidence, and leadership in the boardroom. 
  • Win job interviews. It’s my job to help you get the promotion you deserve.

If you see yourself in these three situations: I help you be brave when you get nervous, and I make your stories simple, clear, and convincing.

I do this by helping you turn hard facts and numbers into exciting stories.

Working with me is like having an extra teammate.  I’ll boost your pace, smooth your path, and lift your spirits.

I just need to know your goals. When you tell me, I’ll keep you accountable to ensure you meet them.

In the past 2 decades, I’ve worked with professionals at top corporates, startups, and scaleups. 

When my nephew asks me what I do, I tell him I’m a story wizard for businesses. But in the industry, they call me a business storytelling coach.

DIGITAL PIONEER

I have published a website since 1993 and a blog since 2001. In 2011 I founded La Fabbrica della Realtà, an innovation laboratory focusing on coaching, training, diversity & inclusion. La Fabbrica della Realtà is a queer-owned & operated business that strives to be inclusive in all its activities.

STORYTELLER

I guide ambitious people to be themselves, help others and reach their career goals. The key is transforming ideas into stories. Once your stories flow, you will too. And you will speak with confidence and ease.

Let me show you how.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

My experience spans managing digital marketing for multinational companies (Warner Bros.), teaching at university (Link Campus), consulting for digital unicorns (Netflix) and coaching the world’s top companies (Heineken, Vinted, Hello Fresh).

I delivered a Storytelling for Scientists workshop at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine: “The workshop was very innovative and well structured, and brought to the surface challenges in scientific communication. […]  I would highly recommend it both as a team-building activity, as well as an introduction to a highly effective approach to science communication.”

I delivered a Business Storytelling Workshop to the client facing team: “Our presentation skills workshop was entertaining, powerful, and inspiring. Matteo was easygoing and adapted to the energy in the room very fast. We had never done something similar; We had never tested our soft skills and improved them with an external professional. My highlight? We analyzed and made parallelisms between presentation flows and how stories are crafted in the entertainment industry.”

I delivered a virtual event training to Sylwia’s team in 2021: “I would like to thank you on behalf of all my colleagues for very useful and inspirational training. It has really opened our minds and allowed to look at our events (and not only) from a different perspective. We will surely be putting into practice all we have learnt.”

I’ve never met Francois, but he’s followed one of my online courses: “[Business Storytelling] has already changed thoroughly the way I deliver my presentations. Guess what? I just arrived from a 3 hours presentation that made my audience fall from their chair. True story! People immediately signed up. After lunch I was confirmed to become their partner in sales development.”

What is Business Storytelling

Business Storytelling refers to the use of the story structure for the purpose of internal and external communication, collaboration and marketing. Storytelling can be used to persuade peers, to sell to clients, to develop new marketing narratives, and even to reposition the company amongst the competition.

The science of storytelling can be a powerful tool in the hands of business people, as it empowers them to transcend the confines and tropes typical of business speak, and to start breaking boundaries with a powerful narrative to support their message.
