Course content:
We will look at the research into the voices that are the most powerful for describing an organisation’s work (they are not who you think they are!) and we’ll identify practical approaches to collecting those people’s stories for your organisation. We’ll look at very short stories (that can even fit on Twitter) and the implications for volunteers telling their stories. You’ll get some tips for shaping a story and successful ideas for stories that say ‘thank you’ to supporters of all kinds.
Learning outcomes:
Those completing this course will be:
- Be able to identify the most effective messengers to tell their organisation’s story
- Have practical, actionable ideas for the stories they can collect from their organisation – right away
- Have practised interview techniques to collect powerful stories of their organisation’s impact
- Be confident at using a range of approaches to crafting these stories
