IEEE-USA: How to Become a Technical Storyteller (NJ Coast PACE SIGHT)
IEEE-USA Free Livestream Webinar -- Become a Technical Storyteller
An important skill for engineers and an essential skill to advance technology for humanity including HAC/ SIGHT activities is Storytelling.
Every day, as technical professionals, we need to communicate something to the teams we work with, and our ability to communicate those messages directly affects the outcomes in a positive or negative way. Becoming a technical storyteller is easier said than done, though, especially when you’re staring at a blank PowerPoint slide, so in this session, Paige Kassalen provides five must-follow steps to help you become a technical storyteller.
Throughout the session, Kassalen will discuss everything from identifying the proper medium to highlighting tips for ensuring your audience arrives at your intended message. Kassalen will leverage her experience working across organizations and presenting to domestic and global audiences to provide tangible examples that will put you on the journey of becoming a technical storyteller.
