Amsterdam Storytelling
Tell the story the room remembers.
Storytelling becomes a real-world business skill. We help corporate teams, startups, founders and professionals communicate with more clarity, confidence and impact.
We rocked workshops for
You bring the numbers, the analysis, the deep research. The room nods. Then the committee asks for one more report, and nothing moves.
Facts make people agree. Stories make them act. We teach your team the second part, in one afternoon.
From boardrooms to founding teams, we shape every session around the people in the room.

After a BA in Theatre Studies and an MA in Cultural Analysis, Luuk achieved his dream by winning two student comedy festivals. He now works as a storytelling coach and speaker.
With over a decade as an Amsterdam guide (adamandevetours.com), Otto has perfected the art of storytelling. A Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Entrepreneurship give him deep insight into how stories shape lives and businesses. In his coaching practice (iamaccountable.nl) he helps entrepreneurs take control of their narrative.

I organised a storytelling workshop for my tech company and Otto did an incredible job. Very lively, fun and context related.
Awesome workshop, engaging and inspirational. It helped me do better startup pitches, and my startup friends as well.
Luuk led our workshop with great activities that tied into the meaning of it. I left with new perspectives, and insight on how to tell my story and help others tell theirs.
You learn to connect with yourself and everyone present through stories. I was amazed by the powerful unifying effect it had on the group.
