My friend Phil invited me to design a storytelling workshop for a Nonprofit conference in Madison. While we were designing it, it caused me to think about those storytelling techniques, models and resources (like CAR, SUCCES & the Hero’s Journey) that had been most helpful for me. Plus, when I told friends about what I was doing, they suggested sto...

When I think about the biggest projects I’ve ever done…most have gotten off the ground by telling a short story to someone I met at an event or in a meeting. We both shared a story about what we were working on and sometimes there is a fit work together. The story helps people to understand who you are, what you do, and what you are working on. Tel...
Here are other story creating, showing, & telling techniques I demonstrate and facilitate at lengthier workshops or retreats: 1. The origin story-what catalyzed you for this cause? What happened? 2.

- Tell the story with one message in mind. Stories are great for leaving a lasting impression, but if you try to make your audience remember too many things at once, they won’t remember anything at all.

- Include a substantial challenge. Any great story has to have a challenge that is substantial to the main character. The challenge doesn’t have to be a monumental one, such as climbing Mount Everest or running five marathons.
