Inspiring others to action requires powerful storytelling skills. Whether you're describing your work history to a potential employer, rallying your team to meet challenging work goals, or asking community members to sacrifice time and energy for an important cause, your success will largely depend on your effectiveness at telling a story that convinces others.
During this 30-minute webinar, Dina Venezky, Executive Director for non-degree programs at Smith College, will present a framework for storytelling that you can apply right away at work and beyond. Interactive exercises will provide you with the opportunity to practice the learnings from this lively session and make the most out of your new skills.
