“The shortest distance between two people is a story,” according to Terrence Gargiulo, former Chief Storyteller of Accenture. Stories are fundamental to how we communicate, learn, and think – but finding ways to tap into the endless supply of “storied fueled” learning is not always clear.

Gargiulo, the founder of Makingstories.net, will show participants new ways of putting the natural power of stories to work. He will go behind the “learning and performance” scene of two Fortune 500 companies to show how story-based learning strategies enabled unexpected performance.
