Before there was formal communication, there were stories. It should come as no surprise, then, that nonprofits should be leveraging stories as a strategic tool to advance important missions. Effective stories are powerful because they drive action: spurring donations, mobilizing supporters, and more. This session includes action steps, templates, samples, and instructions on how to engage your board in storytelling.

This content is a work-style session that provides a short video explanation and materials to help you actively work through this topic.
