This article is more than 8 years old.

In this episode of the Future of Work podcast I speak with Nancy Duarte, principal, and Patti Sanchez, senior vice president of Strategic Services, at Duarte. Duarte is known as “persuasive presentation experts,” and those of you who are interested in learning and improving your presentation and speaking skills may be familiar with them. In this podcast, we look at why storytelling is a big part of the future of work. Nancy and Patti have a new book being released early next year that explore this very topic. They were kind enough to send me a sneak peak of their book which I found to be quite interesting. 

It's no secret that leaders are oftentimes view as the key agents of change within organizations and a big part of their ability to drive change rests on their ability to effectively communicate, but what are the best ways to do this and what tools do leaders have at their disposal? Whether you're an entry-level employee or a senior executive driving change for thousands of people, being able to effectively communicate is crucial, especially when we consider the rise of new platforms and technologies that allow for this communication to take place.

In addition to storytelling we also look at globalization, technology, personal branding, how the workplace is changing, millennials and much more.

This is a very thought-provoking podcast that will resonate with everyone. So tune in and listen to Nancy Duarte and Patti Sanchez on why storytelling is so crucial to the future of work!
