Keynote #1
“Storytelling Camp: Where will You Pitch Your Tent in 2024?”
There are typically two types of storytellers, and knowing which type you are is crucial to understanding your limitations around storytelling. In this address, April helps audiences identify which “camp” do they primarily reside. The goal is to move the audience out of one camp (wherever they are) and into the ultimate place — where storytelling becomes the focus and leads to increased connection, communication, and commerce in their business.
Key Audience Takeaways:
-
Clearly identify which Storytelling “Camp” you are in
-
Realize how hanging out in one camp is limiting your ability to connect deeper with your audience/clients/team and creating a disconnect in your ability to grow as a leader.
-
Action steps to take to move from one camp to another, to make storytelling more of a focus so you can create better connections with your people.
