Come join us for a story or two and tap the shoulder of the storyteller in you. Sarah Hadden and Hemma Lomax were simply enchanted by a presentation by Michelle Beistle and Ashley Dubriwny on the art of story building at the SCCE Compliance and Ethics Institute in Chicago earlier this year and couldn’t wait to share this experience with the GWIC community. Michelle and Ashley literally wake up every day to save the planet in their roles as compliance professionals at The Nature Conservancy (TNC). They have a magnificent talent not only for spinning together an engaging story that awakens the senses and achieves impact, connection, and relevance but also for helping others recognize that we all have it in us to create inspiring and poignant stories. With the help of some simple building blocks and concrete steps, Michelle and Ashley show us that all humans are innately capable of using everyday experiences to build relevant and engaging stories and to share powerful and memorable messages. Inspiration is everywhere. You won’t want to miss this masterclass opportunity to unlock the power of story building for your compliance program and beyond.
