Wisdom 2.0 participants…what’s your story…or storytelling question?

Wisdom2While this was posted as a follow-up for those who participated in my hosted conversation on storytelling in business, anybody attending the conference is more than welcome to share and ask questions.

The more the merrier. It’s a chance to highlight your work and contribution to the world as well as to network with others using–or aspiring to  use–storytelling in their work.

So…

One of the reoccuring themes at the conference has been the importance of storytelling.

Do you have an example of how you use storytelling to either:

1. Make your important idea(s) come alive so it hits home at a visceral level?

2. Communicate the good that you and your organization does in the world? A great example of this was the story Gopi Kallayil shared (via the video) of how Google + has enabled people to bring compassion to the world. The story about how the photographer was able to share the beauty of nature with the women with MS…and then how that triggered others to share their ability to be in nature with those who can’t…that’s a wonderful example of such a story.

3. Communicate how your work helps people transform their lives. These are important for healers, coaches, and other change agents.
