“StoryPower as Loren calls it is SOOOO MUCH MORE than storytelling. It’s a tool for leadership, a tool for communication, a tool for radical transformation for both the leader and the team they lead or present to. StoryPower is an inside job for sure.”
Monica Brett-Serle
"My Story development and Speech development has blossomed over the last month that I have been working with Loren. As a bonus, I have a new product that has emerged out of our working together! Loren has a wealth of knowledge and experience and is great at stimulating thought in a collaborative way."
Laurel Rolls Experienced Coach and Consultant Inspiring Business Professionals & Executives
“Loren met with our team to coach us on our messaging and delivery. He has a great ability to look at all you do and hone down the key points to focus on when delivering your idea. I've also had the opportunity to see another speaker whom he coached deliver an excellent fundraising speech that motivated the entire room to tears and support. Loren is dedicated and passionate about his work! He's definitely got a gift!”
Kristi Kennedy
Co-Founder/CEO at Bee Friendly Network
“There has never been a person in my life that has drilled deeper into my soul than Loren. His ability to follow the Lord’s leading and identify WHO I am in life and my calling has been nothing less than life changing. I hired him to be a speech coach, but he has become a friend, a mentor, and a life coach.”
John Stewart Hill
'Loren is a master craftsman of the spoken language. He is able to communicate a thought, an emotion, a message and an impact with precision. Loren is not only gifted as a presenter and teacher, but also as a coach and mentor. Being gifted at communication involves being an excellent listener as well as speaker. Loren is both, which is why he is an excellent coach and mentor for other communicators. He has the ability to cut away everything non-essential and present a concentrated message that will leave the audience wanting more."
Carrie Gurley
Executive Director at Freedom Shield Foundation
J. Loren Norris is one of the best marketing minds that I have ever come across. He thinks outside the box, while keeping you informed and making sure that the end goals are always in mind. As a speaker Loren was AWESOME at keeping the attention of the room and making sure that everyone was kept involved at all times while making sure to get our sometimes boring information out to the group. He is one of those guys that when you cross his path you will remember him forever and I sure am glad that we have crossed!

Who is StoryPower Masterclass designed for?
If you are a leader or manager for any sized group or team, stories are simply the best tool for communicating ideas and coaching your team to implement specific instructions. If you want transformation to be retained by your team, you need #StoryPower in your arsenal.
If you are a public speaker, teacher, trainer, pastor or coach there is nothing worse to damage your integrity or credibility than trying to use someone else's stories, jokes or anecdotes to make a point.
StoryPower Master class takes leaders and communicators of every level and challenges them to look deep inside at the stories they tell themselves and others.
- If you have ever had that annual review which reads: "Room for improvement - work on being understood by subordinates and not talking over their heads."
- If you have ever felt like your voice isn’t heard because you’re not confident in sharing your ideas with others.
- If you have ever passed up an important opportunity such as a job, promotion or relationship because you didn’t have courage to share your opinions honestly.
- If you have held your tongue in silence to keep from trembling in fear because you fear emotion will over rule what you are bursting at the seams to express.
- If you have rehearsed in your head for days what you want to say and something else jumps off your tongue in the heat of the moment.
- If you have rehearsed many times but without the script, fear grips you and you can’t remember the words you labored over.
- If you have fear of how others perceive you, even though they are not judging you as much as you are.
If you are a leader or manager for any sized group or team, stories are simply the best tool for communicating ideas and coaching your team to implement specific instructions. If you want transformation to be retained by your team, you need #StoryPower in your arsenal.

When you complete this day of intense training you will be prepared to lead transformation in the lives of those who mean the most to you and complete strangers.
- Attendees will leave with a story mining and crafting strategy to maximize the impact
- Attendees will be well on their way to crafting a full speech from several stories designed to connect with an ever broader audience.
- Attendees will develop courage and confidence to recall, retell and respect the details of the most emotional stories.
What StoryPower Masterclass is not:
- StoryPower Masterclass is not an “elevator pitch” course.
- StoryPower Masterclass is not your average public speaking course.
- StoryPower Masterclass is not a Toastmaster's storytelling event.
- StoryPower Masterclass is not a marketing or branding workshop.
- StoryPower Masterclass is not a program to brand your life story as a best selling novel or memoir.
This is a video demonstration of story telling. Loren helps Dan and Shawn to re-craft their stories for greater impact, better know, like and trust factor and multiple calls to action.

STORYPOWER IS AN INSIDE JOB!
STORYPOWER IS AN INSIDE JOB! (Get Started Here)
”It’s nothing new under the sun. We have heard it all our lives. “If you can’t say something nice, then say nothing at all.” For the most part, decent people try to hold their tongues when the urge to say something hurtful, cruel, demeaning and destructive wells up inside them... EXCEPT WHEN THEY ARE TALKING TO THEMSELVES! That’s why StoryPower is an inside job.” J Loren Norris
STORYPOWER IS AN INSIDE JOB
The encouragement we tend to offer others seems to be missing many times in our our internal conversations. I know this for certain, I am my own five decade case study. For as long as I have been able to think, reason and talk, I have vacillated back and forth between verbose pride and self destructive self-talk. I have been halted in relationships by arrogance and an overblown ego and I have struggled with self hatred and low self esteem. I am sure no one else has experienced this journey... RIGHT??
STORYPOWER IS A LEADERSHIP TOOL
Leadership is about influence, then the positive influence which builds trust and safety goes a long way in the direction of loyalty, service and sacrifice. Words, stories, illustrations and examples which encourage, empower and embolden your team members will expand your influence and strengthen your team. In fact, IF THE STORY YOU TELL to make a point involves your team, IT BETTER BE A POSITIVE STORY! We have all encountered people in leadership roles, parenting roles and other positions of management or influence who are careless about how they speak to and about those they lead. It is truly mind boggling. Managers and leaders who unintentionally belittle those who are counting on them through careless stories destroy trust. From name calling to public humiliation some leaders believe the more they can crush the will of those they lead, the more power they have to exert. Nothing could be further from the truth!
STORYPOWER IS A SALES TOOL
Building rapport is as important in sales as it is in leadership or speaking from the stage. If you don’t build rapport, you don’t build trust. If you don’t build trust, you don’t close sales. Very few things disarm and lower the guard of a prospective client or customer like a true, authentic and vulnerable personal story. If you have done your research and homework, then you know enough about the company and the person you are meeting with to know where you might have common ground. The ability to select a story from an existing arsenal of stories which you have refined, rehearsed and prepared to deliver is like having a Swiss Army knife of rapport building tools. Being constantly at the ready with a story perfect for the moment is the perfect sales application of Storypower.
STORYPOWER IS A TEAM TRAINING TOOL
If you have ever trained a new team and found them more focused on their digital devices than your training, they may be distracted, and you may be boring. Let me go back to the power of stories. Well selected, well told, well placed stories will not only break up the monotony of dry training material, keep trainees engaged and demonstrate the more complicated aspects you must deliver, it can also make you a more likable manager, owner or trainer. Investing the time and expense to become a better communicator is hands down the most important investment a business owner can make. Before the newest shiny objects, tools, gadgets, techniques, or even marketing campaign, a leader or business owner who invests in becoming a masterful communicator will see success in pretty much any industry with any sized team.
STORYPOWER IS A COMMUNICATION TOOL
The most common request I receive as a Public Speaking Coach is “help me write the speech that sells!” Ironically, this is an alarm bell in my mind. Immediately our relationship has shifted. Because I know the previous two points to be profoundly true and profoundly critical in the survival of the species, I am hesitant and proceed with caution. I also know that training someone to utilize the power of story selection, story crafting and storytelling when they are still dealing with unbridled ego and emotional wounds is tantamount to handing a sharpened broad sword to an angry five year old and expecting no negative consequences.
Public speaking, leadership and influence all go hand in hand. The marketer who promises to “make you famous”, “get you on stages”, or “create your celebrity brand” without concern for the condition, maturity, responsibility and mental well being of the speaker they are selling a program to simply doesn’t grasp the gravity of the situation. In my opinion, they are sales mercenaries. They will TAKE ANYONE’S MONEY. Many are fine with a “money back guarantee” because by the time the person realizes
MOMENT OF AUTHENTIC TRANSPARENCY
There are hundreds of public speakers who have mastered the “business of public speaking” better than I have. They have the sales funnels, high ticket sales, packed arenas to the rafters and spoken to millions. I am slow in those areas, intentionally. I am well aware of the damage done by rushing to the stage with a “sellable message.” I am also much more passionate about seeing true transformation in those I train for leadership, personal development and communication skills. I hold myself accountable for the development of the speaker, before the creation of the speech.
If you desire to master the many facets of StoryPower in your life in order to bring hope and inspiration to others, I would love to talk to you about the path to Transforming Stories and Transforming Lives. If you are looking for the quickest route to the stage, becoming a overnight celebrity, hiring a marketing guru or a booking agent, they are all over social media. Happy hunting.

"I began my speaking career at 19 by delivering fire safety speeches to elementary schools while serving in the US Air Force as a Fire Fighter. Since then, I have helped entrepreneurs, government officials and Fortune 50 Corporations worldwide learn to lead difficult attitudes and to tap into the power of their life experience to craft a vision and message with lasting impact."
