And for good measure, here’s what Ashley Herbert, Head of Product Marketing at Recruitee, had to say about narrative design:
"I thoroughly enjoyed this course!! It was sooo helpful. Not only were you able to dig further into the process that he went through at HubSpot but he also ran through a case study at another company he worked with and gave clear examples of how to execute on something like this internally and externally. I can't wait to use this with my own company!"

How does the course journey work?

Core sets you up with all the essentials. Masters goes into incredible depth on each of those essentials covered in Core. Leadership sets you up to build, scale, and strategize at the highest level.
However, if you want to dip your toe into a handful of the Masters before you embark on Core, that’s A-okay with us.
