What is Your Story & How Do You Tell It? | September 10, 2020 | 8:00 - 10:00 a.m. | Zoom

Stories are powerful for nonprofits. Stories inspire and motivate community members to do more for our missions and those we serve. Stories engage our board members and support them in being great advocates and ambassadors. Stories convey our gratitude to our donors and show them the impact of their giving. And stories can even help us, the nonprofit leaders, when we are nose-deep in balance sheets and annual planning, to remember why the work we do is so important to our community.

In this online lab, you will learn how to develop and share your story: your organization's story, as well as the stories of the people who make up your organization. It will help you understand the core concepts and structure of story, how to create a culture of storytelling within your organization, ways to share your story, and things to consider with regard to confidentiality and privacy.
We will also practice sharing our stories and discuss how to use your story to create change.
