Melissa Reaves is a Seattle based Executive Storytelling Mentor and Founder/CEO of Story Fruition. She has over 25 years in start-ups as well as enterprise sales--so she's grown up in corporate environments and knows first-hand how challenged most presentations are in that realm. She and her coaches help C-Suite executives, authors, scientists, engineers, inventors, and capital raising entrepreneurs learn to become compelling storytellers in their presentations, Town Halls, media podcasts and signature talks--so that they shine and feel confident as they work to change the world with their message. Her book, The Storyteller's Mind Movie, is a hands-on tool that teaches the core elements that turn a meandering story into a vivid, well-crafted Mind Movie that the listeners can see, hear, smell, taste and FEEL. Storytelling is an essential business skill, but most people have never really been taught how to story TELL---so Melissa is bringing what she does professionally onstage as an actor, improviser, and storyteller--and takes it to the boardroom. "Let's remove the boredom from the boardroom--and make it exciting and inspiring by creating emotionally connected leaders. That's where storytelling skills come in." Her own storytelling has been on NPR, PBS (2x), Ignite Seattle (2x) and she's won several storytelling competitions including The Moth and the National Storytellers Network. Her work also supports LGBQT+ initiatives, as well as produced Melanin Stories Matter, a storytelling show spotlighting Black, Indigenous and People of Color to quell racism and celebrate our diversity as humans. In addition, she enjoys cooking, lifting weights, going on hilly walks and enjoying her two silver tabbies, Totoro and Thor. She's the proud mother of her two “spawn” Quincy and Maisy. “My kids are amazing,They are fabulous storytellers too!” Facebook: @storyfruition LinkedIn: /company/story-fruition/ Instagram: story_fruition Twitter: @StoryFruition YouTube: Story Fruition
