Empowering
Communications

More than a school, Story School is a hybrid platform structured around seven strategic pillars.
The three historical pillars: Learning, Advisory, and Research
Expanded by four creative and operational pillars:
   – Story Prod – Audiovisual production for a fast-moving world
   – Story Design – From graphic design to creative design systems
   – Story Art – The art of communication and communication through art
   – Story Event – Reinventing the event experience

Together, these pillars enable us to deliver programs rooted in real-world challenges, led by leading national and international experts—ensuring professionals remain at the forefront of communication and industry transformation.

Our Foundational Pillars

Story School is an Africa-centered institution with global appeal. Every executive program is designed with creativity in mind.

Crafted by experts, dedicated to professionals, facilitating experiential learning. Unleashing transformation for both individuals and organizations. Empowering you to create a profound impact using the art of storytelling.

Storytelling

Storytelling is at the heart of every Story School executive education program. Across learning, research, advisory, media and art executive programs, we inspire individuals and organizations to understand why storytelling matters and to learn how to tell stories that make an impact. In parallel, our research programs build knowledge and resources around storytelling and our expansion into media and art deepens our holistic focus on storytelling. Because stories make and change the world.

Africa-centered

As a global institution, we lead with an African perspective. Across all Story School executive education programs, we shine a spotlight on Africa through collaborative partnerships.

Creativity

We inspire both individuals and organizations to cultivate their creative capacities by constructing executive programs that prioritize and embrace creativity.
Across learning, research, advisory, media and art, we take a creative approach: carrying inspiration from martial arts to design level-based executive learning programs and creating the first academic research center in Africa devoted to the study of storytelling and communications.

Learning by doing

Our multidisciplinary executive learning programs embed a learning by doing approach across all disciplines. Custom programs offer tailor-made communications training for participating organizations, while open programs offer pre-defined training programs for communication professionals. To provide a transformational learning experience for all students at Story School, we offer a unique 5-belt learning system that stretches across all levels.

Transformation

Each executive education program at Story School empowers communications and transformation. Multidisciplinary learning programs inspire students to transform their communication skills through advisory programs, including 1:1 coaching, thus empowering communicators to upskill and develop their leadership skills; and through research programs, contributing in the transformation of the future of communication practices and trends.
