Reflection Assignment :   Storytelling 

 Challenge :   Working for a start up government organization that is trying to build a learning and   development infrastructure for training at all levels across all content .   But really trying to change the   culture of the government to be more agile and able to respond to changing market needs with an eye   towards being the “ best government in the world ” . 

 Selection :   I chose storytelling because , as a tradition , it is deeply embedded in the local culture .   It is   easy to adapt to the audience and can be used to tap into the emotional drivers of my stakeholders . 

 Application :   I very specifically applied the tool in my strategic planning .   We had identified specific   issues that needed to be explained and generate support among various stakeholder groups .   By making   it clear precise issues , target audience , and desired outcomes we were able to create a story template   that the team could learn , personalize , and use authentically in the individual   meetings / events / workshops we had .   It was also presented in such a way that the participants could use   the story / information back in their environment thereby spreading the messaging . 

 Outcomes & Insights :   While this was n’t the only tool we used , it was extremely effective getting the   basic ideas out into the larger audience .   We knew we were successful when I started hearing the story   being told back to me by stakeholders who participated in the process .   In future we would likely deploy   to a larger audience and have targeted “ props ” that individuals could take away and remind them .   We   are also going to deploy story telling training to a wider audience so it can be used in greater numbers as   our target audience is in 50,000 + .
