With the centrality of story to what we as social marketers do, I was excited to learn of the Reinvention Summit - a "virtual summit on the future of storytelling" put together by Get Storied. This two-week event will focus on the power of narrative to change the world. Between November 11-22, the summit will offer online webinars, interviews and panel discussions with over 30 experts on various aspects of storytelling.

The social change-related sessions I am most excited about are:

  • Andy Goodman and Lily McCombs - Social Movements as Participatory Storytelling
  • Pip Coburn - Expanding the Threshold for Change: Narrative, Technology and Innovation
  • John Elkington and John Marshall Roberts - Sustainability and Global Behavior Change
  • Richard Geer - It Takes a Village to Tell the Story: Reinvention in the Community Sphere
  • Nancy Duarte - That Resonates with Me! How to Change the World One Presentation at a Time
  • Angela Maiers - Story Power: Reclaiming the Place of Story in Education and Life
  • Katya Andresen - Storytelling Your Cause: What Donors Want and Need to Know About Your Story
And in the transmedia realm:
  • Lance Weiler - Storytelling R&D: How to Build a Transmedia StoryWorld
  • Gunther Sonnenfeld - Dynamic Publishing, Transmedia and the Construct of Good
