8:00 – 9:30am
Room: Floridian A
Even if you do not consider yourself to be a storyteller, the reality is you are. We cannot live through a single day without sharing stories and being influenced by them: stories motivate us, challenge us to think in new ways, and assist us to recognize the differences as well as similarities we have as human beings. Stories, of course, are also central in advancing your important work in Florida with a variety of stakeholders and constituents. This session will spark a shift in mindset about how this important currency of influence and engagement can be integrated strategically to benefit your work. Additionally, you will learn a process for creating effective stories to reach the many diverse stakeholders you wish to influence and engage.
