It was great to speak with @michelleockers on the @LearningUncut Elevate podcast about how #LearningAndDevelopment professionals can use #storytelling. Any chance to tell a few stories to make a business point! Listen here https://t.co/dmjJ41KMJw

@RadarG @benny_alexander @alfred_energy @markschenk @BrumbiesRugby It’s not just Hawthorn ... and @benny_alexander it can be hard to see the story explaining something you’re close to, like Alfred. But it is there. Happy to chat

[Mark Schenk @markaschenk]

@RadarG @benny_alexander @alfred_energy @markschenk @BrumbiesRugby Thanks @RadarG.

Ability to use facial verification data as part of Gov’t digital identity management enabled payments to be made to people who lost their homes and all their identity documents in the bushfires #afrgov21

@VPPhilip points out the COVID was a predictable ‘grey rhino’ rather than an unpredictable ‘black swan’ #AFRgov21

[Mark Schenk @markaschenk]

Enjoying @VPPhilip speaking plainly and clearly at #AFRgov21

[Mark Schenk @markaschenk]

#AFRgov21 Love that Services Australia Secretary Rebecca Skinner uses ‘vignettes’ to make a point about culture and customer experience #businessstorytelling

@RadarG @scottmorrison Not specifically ... but a good case in point.

[Mark Schenk @markaschenk]

Transmission is easy. Communication is hard. Leaders talk and talk and talk ... but is anyone listening?

We can’t wait until we’re able to present to big groups of people face-to-face again. But in the meantime, we’re happy that all of our keynotes can be delivered virtually 💻 #storytelling #communication #keynote

@DanielAndrewsMP Enough! Give us back our freedom. You’ve exceeded your authority and exhausted your credibility. The roadmap is not science-based - it is a set of policy choices you have made. It belongs in the rubbish. You are not Ardern. You are Putin. Enough!! #COVID19Vic

Most strategies are poorly understood and, as a result, poorly executed. This episode of the podcast explains why and what you can do about it

Being good at talking about stuff doesn’t mean you’re good at communicating stuff. Leaders need a lot more help to understand this and change their commutation behaviour. #storypoweredcommunication

@MichelleOckers Much of our collective responses are based in emotion rather than logic. The term ‘collateral damage’ might apply in your case. Apart from the need to weather the storm in JB, hope you and J are well

@Telstra Please help. My internet is down and you are not even responding. Spent 14 hours in a text conversation only to be told I need to talk to another department. That was nearly 24 hours ago and I’ve had no response to numerous follow up texts I’ve sent. #telstra

[Mark Schenk @markaschenk]

Part of the power of stories is that they don’t try to persuade people. Stories are an invitation to understand another’s perspective.

Are there other eligible businesses out there still waiting for their JobKeeper payments to start? End-of-month payroll due in a few days and the stress is high - how will I pay my team? #JobKeeper
