Workshops feature opportunities to practice and play in a supportive, low-stakes environment. Every activity is rooted in a mindset of abundance; each person has a unique voice that helps us connect and broaden our perspective.Tell a Great Story (CORK Stories Part 1): Apply the CORK Story framework to get to the heart of any wine talk. This workshop begins by addressing the fact that public speaking doesn’t come naturally to most people, and provides simple techniques to get more comfortable in front of a crowd. The core of the workshop, however, is how to tell a great story. Participants will work in groups to tell the story of an existing wine brand or wine event.Tell Your Story (CORK Stories Part 2): Apply the CORK Story framework to develop your own wine talk. Participants will use a simple, repeatable framework to tell their own “tendril” story- one that is maleable, fresh, and unique to each person. Participants will also play a vital role as audience members, offering feedback on what makes each story resonate.Speaking on the Fly: No time? No problem! This workshop offers fast & loose extemporaneous speaking practice for those days when you need to get it together fast. Participants will engage in fun, low-stakes practice for introductions, answering questions, and telling a quick story on their feet. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/napa/cork-stories-public-speaking-and-presence-for-wine-professionals/100001991949987033 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Workshops, Art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 35, max: 35, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Napa - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Napa Valley College - **lat**: 38.2727899 - **long**: -122.2755656 - **full address**: Napa Valley College, 2277 Napa Vallejo Highway, Napa, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Cork Stories:  Public Speaking and Presence for Wine Professionals - **Image URL**: https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=Cork+Stories%3A%C2%A0+Public+Speaking+and+Presence+for+Wine+Professionals&date=Mon%2C+03+Aug%2C+2026+at+06%3A00+pm&bg=4 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Cork Stories:  Public Speaking and Presence for Wine Professionals being held? - **A:** Cork Stories:  Public Speaking and Presence for Wine Professionals takes place on Mon, 03 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Mon, 03 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Napa Valley College, 2277 Napa Vallejo Highway, Napa, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Cork Stories:  Public Speaking and Presence for Wine Professionals? - **A:** Cork Stories:  Public Speaking and Presence for Wine Professionals is organized by NVC Viticulture & Winery Technology. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
