Challenge & Selection   In my culture , storytelling is a great part of how we express ourselves and pass on history to   the next generation . In my capacity as a digital transformation specialist , and instructional   designer , I use storytelling as a tool to describe change , to explain “ why s ” , and to help   individuals relate to how the “ lesson ” or “ moral ” of the story would directly influence them .   For me , storytelling helps me connect better with my clients and help in creating a visualize   sense of what to expect .      I recently started a small company in my hometown in Western Nigeria . I live in the   U.S./Europe , so starting a business at a distance already comes with its own challenges .   However , the issue of distance is not the focus of this reflection . The challenge is how the   human capital of the continent has been affected by colonialism , and decades later , this   issue affects several aspects of African .      Without going into too much historical details , I named my company “ United Nations Development   Programme(UNDP ” Innovations   and Coworking Space . “ United Nations Development   Programme(UNDP ” translates to Renaissance in my native Yoruba language .   The choice for the name was deliberate , both in meaning as it ties to my vision , and speaks   to the local community of the city .     I invited a couple of young local writers to visit the space and we discussed my vision for the   space . While they were impressed with the prospects , they both expressed that the name I   had selected was “ too local , aka bush ” in Nigerian context .      Application   I decided to use this as an opportunity for storytelling . In discussing the importance of our   culture and a reminder of how our history shapes our future , I explained to them the   benefits of localizing your business . In the long run , this business was created to serve the   local community . When the community sees one more new business open with a western   context , they are unable to relate to the business , and will miss out on the opportunities   that will help them grow .    I also used this opportunity to discuss how our cultural heritage excites individuals in other   countries , and the hunger for the history and the knowledge continues to grow , which may   be business opportunities for young people .     Insight & Approach   This whole situation was an interesting one for me on two different levels . My first   observation was that , I definitely knew that western influence on Africa still exists , but the   second insight for me was the fact that young people today think that shedding their   cultural identity is a good idea . With the issues the world has these days , it looks like there is   so much more work needed to be done in holding on to and preserving African heritage .    In reflecting on this course , I see the continuous importance of storytelling in telling our   stories in preserving our cultural heritage , but also to see the pride in African culture . Being   an artist helps me to visualize my stories better and I will continue to use this tool in my   business ventures .
