Description

Every organization runs on stories that explain who you are, where you've been, and where you're headed. Organizational storytelling is effective when implemented intentionally, but most organizations tell stories by accident rather than by design. In this 50-minute lunch-and-learn, organizational storytelling expert Laura Packer of thinkstory will introduce you to the what and why of meaningful organizational storytelling: what it is, why it matters, and how it quietly shapes your culture, your brand, your leadership, and your ability to navigate change. Whether you're a leader, a communicator, or in another role and someone who cares about how your organization shows up in the world, this session will give you a new lens for understanding the stories already at work around you.

You'll leave with a clearer sense of what organizational storytelling is, why it is more effective than most traditional business communication tools, and what becomes possible when story is used with intention. This session is a beginning, no experience required, though it's always welcome. Bring your curiosity and an appetite. Lunch is not included but you're welcome to bring yours.

The stories we tell matter. Whether we are telling to kids, crafting a presentation for work, preparing for a concert, or something else entirely, what we say and how we say it is important. 

Listening matters. When we listen to each other we find understanding and compassion we might otherwise have missed.
