WHY THIS TOPIC:

Once upon a time there was a leader who realized that the best and fastest way to become a successful and truly authentic leader was to learn how to be a master storyteller. And she/they led happily ever after…

“Data can persuade people, but it doesn’t inspire them to act; to do that, you need to wrap your vision in a story that fires the imagination and stirs the soul.” – Harrison Monarth

Skilled storytelling can help you ace an interview or talk yourself out of a speeding ticket, but far beyond that, storytelling is a high-impact communication skill that will serve you in your role, in your relationship building, and in your ability to be a high-impact, authentic leader. Olga Selina, VP IT at Baxter, will discuss how telling stories that intertwine personal and work experiences can transform a leader’s relationship with their staff (yes, she has a few stories of her own to tell).

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

– How to use storytelling to be more easily and effectively share who you are and increase your emotional intelligence
– Ways your stories can inspire, support, share context, and create a team ethos
– How storytelling can help you incorporate humor into your work environment

THIS MIGHT BE FOR YOU IF YOU ARE

– In a leadership role of any kind
– Looking for new and more effective ways to communicate and connect to your team
– Someone who loved storytime in Kindergarten
