Becoming Memorable At Work

You did the work. You have the data. You know the answer. So why does someone else say almost the exact same thing five minutes later—and suddenly everyone remembers it? That’s not always an expertise problem. Sometimes, it’s a visibility problem. Jess and Claude sit down with actress, director, keynote speaker, and storytelling expert Sabine Kvenberg to talk about what actually makes someone memorable in a room—and whether presence, confidence, and storytelling can be learned. Sabine shares why confidence is a learned skill, how introverts can build presence without becoming louder, and her SET framework for stronger storytelling: Story, Emotion, and Tie. We also explore the confidence-competence loop, why great storytelling isn’t about making every moment dramatic, and how the way you deliver an idea can be just as important as the idea itself. Plus, we get into AI: how to use it to strengthen your communication without letting it flatten your voice into something generic—and why AI can learn how you sound, but it still can’t know or replace your lived story. In this episode: • Why being right isn’t always enough to be remembered • How confidence and stage presence can be developed • Why introverts can be powerful storytellers • Sabine’s SET storytelling framework • How storytelling improves workplace visibility • The difference between sharing information and creating something memorable • How to use AI without losing your authentic voice • What makes someone truly memorable in a room Learn more about Sabine Kvenberg and her book Gumption at SabineKvenberg.com. Because your story doesn’t need to be louder. It needs to be yours.
