NSA-CT February 2023 Chapter Meeting
Story- Bridge the Gap Between Hearing and Engagement: Strategies to Keep Your Audience Leaning In – Laconia Therrio
Program Description Laconia Therrio loves stories, particularly those from around the world. Stories remind the listener of what they have in common with others, especially those different from the listener, so much so that the story truly matters. And when the story is over, the person has been transported to a different realm. Stories matter. They touch the heart, mind, and spirit of the listener. All the teller does is share the story, but the relationship between the teller and the story is sacred. Program Objectives By the end of this session, attendees will be able to…
- Learn three storytelling strategies to keep your audience leaning in for more
- Learn how stories Build, Bridge, and Connect to your audience immediately
- Know the difference between telling a story versus being connected to the story you tell
