Description

Stories have always been — and will remain — one of the strongest tools we have to make a point and remain in someone’s memory. This course will teach students how to use narrative techniques and structures to create compelling stories to help them nail an interview, motivate a team, secure funding, build a brand, and inspire customers. Students will analyze the ways that companies use stories to appeal to consumers and will workshop a personal brand story presentation.
