Storytelling
Using Plain Language To Tell Our Stories
Wednesday, July 14, 2021 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM ET
Hosted by Digital.gov and the Plain Language Community of Practice
Being able to tell a story is a great talent. People who can tell stories can motivate people to act, help organizations transform, and highlight our government mission successes.
Some of us don’t do it naturally; we have to learn it. In this session, Bethany Blakey will provide some templates and approaches for crafting simple stories to suit our purpose.
