Storytelling connects us. It lets us relate, empathize, and often leaves us changed, persuaded, or inspired. I’ve always known its power, but crafting my own story was a challenge. Through the presentation skills and storytelling program, I learned practical frameworks and techniques that made capturing this magic easier. Thank you Leopold Ajami — can’t wait to put these into action!

Leopold Genius Ajami. A person who impacted my life tremendously and still manages to do it every single day. At my first ever conference, I met Leopold. He became an inspiration for me. The way he taught me and many others about how to influence people, excell in public speaking, ethical persuasion and much more is indescribable. You don't have to listen to him to learn from him, you can just watch. But if you dare to hear and listen, your life will change so much! When Leopold started coaching me, I gained so much confidence. I started crafting my first talk, implementing many changes in my daily life, and working every day on my skills. I can't recommend Leopold enough. If you want an unlimited source of inspiration, knowledge and are ready to implement it, Leopold is the right person for it!

Working with Leopold at Novel Philosophy Academy was a transformative experience. His guidance proved invaluable as I explored critical and creative thinking through a unique philosophical lens. Leopold's ability to explain complex ideas with clarity and precision, using rational inquiry, broadened my perspective across various domains. From understanding relationships to navigating the intricacies of modern culture, history, love, technology, literature, and work, Leopold's approach fostered a critical thinking approach that has become second nature. Through our exploration of philosophy's giants, we learned to dissect complex ideas, distilling their essence into clear and actionable principles. This not only sharpened my critical thinking but also transformed my communication skills. I became adept at simplifying intricate concepts and conveying them with fluency and clarity, both in writing and verbally. Leopold's unique approach made philosophy a practical toolkit for leadership and effective communication. We took timeless wisdom and applied it to real-world scenarios, turning philosophy on its head and making it a powerful tool for navigating complex situations. This journey not only equipped me with the skills necessary to thrive as an entrepreneur, but also fostered a lasting friendship with Leopold.

I had the privilege of working with Leo on a program focused on ethical persuasion, and trust me I was immediately struck by his exceptional depth of knowledge. Beyond being highly informed, he’s the kind of person who captivates the room with his engaging presence. Philosophy, psychology, life, business... Leopold brings intellectual creativity to every conversation and connects with people on multiple levels. Over three days, we shared deep, inspiring discussions that left a lasting impression on me personally. Check him on YouTube and you'll understand why. Lastly if you don’t have Leo in your circle, I (strongly/highly/extensively) recommend reaching out. Personally, I'm taking him as a mentor in many aspects (You better watch out Leo) and I suggest you do the same. Believe me he’s exactly the type of person you want to have around.

Thanks to Leopold’s coaching, I left my audience with goosebumps! Public speaking was always a rocket science for me. Until I met Léopold. The way how he explains the principles of communication and ethical persuasion is powerful and effective. Just after my 1st webinar with him I was able to apply one of the principles - Powerline, and leave goosebumps on my audience. 1st time in my life I managed to connect with my audience! And it’s me, who never was a good public speaker before. Thank you, Léopold, for guiding me in developing this skill and making this journey enjoyable.

Storytelling connects us. It lets us relate, empathize, and often leaves us changed, persuaded, or inspired. I’ve always known its power, but crafting my own story was a challenge. Through the presentation skills and storytelling program, I learned practical frameworks and techniques that made capturing this magic easier. Thank you Leopold Ajami — can’t wait to put these into action!

Leopold Genius Ajami. A person who impacted my life tremendously and still manages to do it every single day. At my first ever conference, I met Leopold. He became an inspiration for me. The way he taught me and many others about how to influence people, excell in public speaking, ethical persuasion and much more is indescribable. You don't have to listen to him to learn from him, you can just watch. But if you dare to hear and listen, your life will change so much! When Leopold started coaching me, I gained so much confidence. I started crafting my first talk, implementing many changes in my daily life, and working every day on my skills. I can't recommend Leopold enough. If you want an unlimited source of inspiration, knowledge and are ready to implement it, Leopold is the right person for it!

Working with Leopold at Novel Philosophy Academy was a transformative experience. His guidance proved invaluable as I explored critical and creative thinking through a unique philosophical lens. Leopold's ability to explain complex ideas with clarity and precision, using rational inquiry, broadened my perspective across various domains. From understanding relationships to navigating the intricacies of modern culture, history, love, technology, literature, and work, Leopold's approach fostered a critical thinking approach that has become second nature. Through our exploration of philosophy's giants, we learned to dissect complex ideas, distilling their essence into clear and actionable principles. This not only sharpened my critical thinking but also transformed my communication skills. I became adept at simplifying intricate concepts and conveying them with fluency and clarity, both in writing and verbally. Leopold's unique approach made philosophy a practical toolkit for leadership and effective communication. We took timeless wisdom and applied it to real-world scenarios, turning philosophy on its head and making it a powerful tool for navigating complex situations. This journey not only equipped me with the skills necessary to thrive as an entrepreneur, but also fostered a lasting friendship with Leopold.

I had the privilege of working with Leo on a program focused on ethical persuasion, and trust me I was immediately struck by his exceptional depth of knowledge. Beyond being highly informed, he’s the kind of person who captivates the room with his engaging presence. Philosophy, psychology, life, business... Leopold brings intellectual creativity to every conversation and connects with people on multiple levels. Over three days, we shared deep, inspiring discussions that left a lasting impression on me personally. Check him on YouTube and you'll understand why. Lastly if you don’t have Leo in your circle, I (strongly/highly/extensively) recommend reaching out. Personally, I'm taking him as a mentor in many aspects (You better watch out Leo) and I suggest you do the same. Believe me he’s exactly the type of person you want to have around.

While preparing for a forum in New York, Leopold provided one-on-one coaching that significantly enhanced my performance. His guidance on crafting a ‘Powerline’ and utilizing his ‘LIGHT’ formula revolutionized my presentation approach.

Thanks to Leopold’s coaching, I left my audience with goosebumps! Public speaking was always a rocket science for me. Until I met Léopold. The way how he explains the principles of communication and ethical persuasion is powerful and effective. Just after my 1st webinar with him I was able to apply one of the principles - Powerline, and leave goosebumps on my audience. 1st time in my life I managed to connect with my audience! And it’s me, who never was a good public speaker before. Thank you, Léopold, for guiding me in developing this skill and making this journey enjoyable.
