Overview

Date: Wednesday, May 8, 9am–12pm Pacific Time | 6–9pm CEST

Instructor: Liz Lewis

Location: Online

Fee: $150 or $100 if you qualify for discounted pricing

Storytelling is a universal aspect of the human experience. Stories, like culture, shape our encounters with the world. They guide how we experience, seek out, and share knowledge and experience, and they create new bonds between storytellers and audiences. For researchers and other professionals in industry settings, powerful stories can transform friction into insight, fear into curiosity, silos into partnerships, and doubt into action. But what distinguishes a good story from a great one? What makes a story stick in memory, taking on a life of its own as something potentially bigger? This session is designed for researchers and other practitioners in industry settings who want to leverage the power of storytelling in their work. All experience levels and roles are welcome.
