Telling personal stories is the most powerful way to spark innovation in a company within a short time period like 5 minutes. The document introduces Wisdom Circles, which are highly engaging sessions where employees share personal stories from their work experiences that contain meaningful insights and lessons that can inspire others. Sharing these types of stories through Wisdom Circles is a better approach than other common methods like presenting data, best practices, or case studies, as stories transmit knowledge and wisdom in a memorable way.

Innovation isn’t about a genius working in isolation. Good ideas are formed from a series of previously unconnected connections. So how do you increase your chances of making those connections to improve your fundraising?
Why Tell a Story? Storytelling is an essential skill for leaders who want to capture the imagination of their employees and spur change. A key element in involving their imagination is by using a story to create mystery and engage their curiosity. Life today is overwhelming. When you offer a story that engages people at an emotional level, entertains them and ignites their passion, they will listen. When they are listening, you have influence. In fact, people will always listen to those who tell the best stories. The best stories are the ones that have the most meaning for the greatest number people. Learn how to ignite action, enable listeners to visualize the transformation needed to instill organizational values and install organizational values. Stories provide you with a venue to be genuine and positive, nurture innovation and establish identity and trust. It is important that you do not tell a single story, rather the characters and themes should be rich and diverse. As a leader you can foster collaboration in which group members develop a shared perspective and create a link between now and a positive result tomorrow. Once people make your story their story, you have tapped into the powerful force of faith. Storytelling creates a natural, collaborative connection between leaders and members of the organization.
Learning Objectives:
1. How can I use the power of story to move my organization/team forward?
2. What and how great leaders tell great stories?
3. What style of story is used and when as a leader?

Visualization leveraging the human cognition proves to be an invaluable tool to explore, digest, analyze and communicate the information. We reveal patterns, trends, relations or dependencies that were buried before.
But, what happens after we have created such an elaborate and powerful visualization and released it to the world? How does the it affect the beholder? How does it help shaping his opinions or even changing his behavior? Because, at the end of the day, visualization is simply a means to an end — a tool to achieve a bigger goal.
