Welcome!
I’m Jordan Bower.
Volatility is up, trust is down, and AI is changing everything. In a world where everything can change in a flash, people are looking to leaders to set context, explain nuance, and create clear narratives that build trust, hope and buy-in.
The trouble is that most leaders have been trained to think in spreadsheets and bullet points — not in the human-centered language that connects the “how” and “what” to the “who” and “why” with strategy and authenticity.
That’s where I come in.
Over the last 15 years, I have worked with more than 200 organizations to bridge the “soft stuff” of leadership with the hard data and analysis of business. I’ve put all those insights into the Narrative Alignment Lab™ — a customized leadership storytelling training for executive and leadership teams in any industry who want to drive impact with your communication.
In just one full day, you will:
learn to approach all leadership communication like a storyteller
apply your new perspective to address real communications challenges
practice a new approach and get feedback from your peers
develop a tailored action plan to accelerate your learning
All of this with my expert, live guidance.
What People are Saying
“This isn't just another training — it's a game-changing shift in how we communicate with clients and stakeholders, so we can drive improved results.”

Mindset-changing learning outcomes tailored to your team.
A shared leadership storytelling toolkit
Simple, repeatable story structures your team can use in emails, presentations, meetings, or strategy decks — to make complex ideas land.
Common language for team alignment
A common vocabulary for sharing the “why” behind a project, a pivot, or a vision — helping reduce confusion, misalignment, and rework.
Improved cross-team communication
A better understanding of how different functions think, and how to speak in ways that get heard — especially when stakes are high.
Build confidence and clarity
Even quieter team members learn how to make their voice heard — developing personality, authenticity and comfort influencing across roles.

Live coaching and hands-on exercises using real examples from your business — so you walk out knowing how to use what you learned.

What People are Saying
