Strategy has to appeal to stakeholders at a very personal and human level for them to buy into it. There are two important methods to activate stakeholders toward change and action: Storytelling for impact and stakeholder mobilisation for change. In this module, we will explore the science behind storytelling, different methods to bring structure to the creative process of designing stories, and methods for activating impact beacons that shine brighter than any convincing dataset.
