Wake Me Up When the Data Is Over: Impact through Stories
How can you get your colleagues and management to actively support your business process excellence efforts and facilitate needed changes?  What can you do to get them to understand and value your work and contributions to bottom-line results?  Is there a way you can quickly communicate data and complex information so decisions can be made and follow through can happen?  Try stories – well-crafted, compelling stories can get you these outcomes plus help you build personal and organizational credibility.

The Performance Excellence Network is pleased to announce a special workshop “Wake Me up When the Data Is Over: Making an Impact through Stories” July 23 in the Twin Cities.  The workshop will be facilitated by Lori Silverman.

Learn why stories resonate with people and what makes them more effective than examples, anecdotes, and case studies. Discover myriad sources for stories, how to elicit them from others, ways to capture them, and how to structure their content for maximum impact. Take away key insights and proven practices from organizations such as Spare Key, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Lockheed Martin, Molson Coors Brewing Company, State of WI Department of Natural Resources, FivePoint Federal Credit Union, the Association for Public Health Laboratories, Rush Copley Medical Center, Hewlett-Packard, and dozens of others across the world, both large and small, that consciously and purposefully employ this approach.

The workshop is a full day (9:00 to 5:00) and will be hosted in the Twin Cities.  Cost is $250 for members, $500 for non-members.  Groups of 2-3 are $225 and $450/each (member, non-member), and groups of 4+ are $200 and $400/each, respectively.
