In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore alternative creative practices that improve your thinking and your ability to tell stories that make your ideas stick.

You’ll learn how to build a story using creative, out-of-the-box techniques. You’ll learn how to build your practice of writing, using the tools of songwriting. You’ll think more about how to use words and how to craft a story than you have in ages. 

Exclusively for Sweathead Members

Founded by former head of strategy and hip hop magazine publisher Mark Pollard, Sweathead launched in January 2018 as a Facebook Group then as a podcast.

First, we created a home for the strategy-inclined. Then, we sought to bring the strategy-inclined together to learn from each other.
