How to Effectively Use Storytelling in your Work and Life

by 7 Comments

I recently had the honor of presenting on storytelling at Podcamp Nashville, and I’m so grateful to everyone who came out to the event. Speaking is always a good challenge and learning experience for me, and this session was no different. It was my first run on this slide deck and structure, I’ve talked about story before, but wanted to give this talk more structure, action, and examples. Overall, I was very pleased with the result and the feedback was great, but I know there was plenty I could work on. Enjoy all the resources and let me know if I can help with anything!
