Stories have always driven change. The most effective advocates, whether they're leading nonprofits, driving corporate initiatives, or community champions, know that data and logic alone rarely move people to act. Stories do. It seems like it would be easy, but finding the right story, shaping it for impact, and knowing when and how to use it are skills that need to be learned.
In this practical online workshop, Laura Packer from thinkstory will guide participants through the essentials of advocacy storytelling
- How to identify the stories already living in your work
- How to craft them so they resonate with the people you need to reach
- How to deploy them strategically to create real change.
You'll leave with concrete tools you can put to use immediately and a vision of what becomes possible when story is used with intention. Whether you're a seasoned communicator or new to thinking about storytelling as an advocacy skill, this workshop has something for you. Workshop includes handouts with optional additional coaching.
