DT | Storytelling to Get Ideas Adopted - Noon

In this workshop you will learn the shape of stories, how to effectively share your personal story, and how to clearly communicate your ideas. You will receive techniques in the three primary interactions of idea adoption: Intros, Convos, and Presos.  Storytelling isn’t an elevator pitch. It’s about a human connection. This is a very active working session. Bring your idea and be prepared for an afternoon of storytelling.
