Stories are certainly a great way to gain members, raise more money and get attention for Rotary.
Smart leaders use stories to motivate team members and inspire high performance. Savvy salespeople tell stories to encourage prospects to become customers. Parents use stories to inspire good behavior from their children.
Yet, most people don’t know how to tell a really good story.
The creation of a powerful narrative cannot be ad-libbed, but it can be shaped and sculpted, especially if you're familiar with the narrative essentials.
Author, keynote speaker (and our District 6380 Governor in 2016-17), Michael Angelo Caruso, will show us how to use the power of narrative in Rotary, at work and at home.
At this unique One Rotary Summit, you'll have tons of fun as you sharpen your story-telling skills and learn how to:
- Stage and frame the story
- Pick up signals that people are ready for your story
- Grow your Rotary club
- Develop a flair for storytelling
- Establish (and deliver) positive expectations
- Master the two-minute "signature story"
- Customize your story for each of the four main personality styles
- Raise more money
- Read your audience better
- Stay on message
- Get people to attend events and join
- Increase fundraising
- Get a promotion at work
Get the power of story on Saturday morning, September 14 in Ann Arbor.
