How did Oxy shape your life? Why do you remain involved in Oxy? Why should others join you in supporting The Oxy Campaign For Good?
At this interactive storytelling training with Andy Goodman, director of the Goodman Center, you will develop your own concise and compelling Oxy story. Equipped with this skill, you will be able to inspire the Oxy community to get involved and apply the power of storytelling to create meaningful change at Oxy and beyond.
Andy Goodman is co-founder and director of The Goodman Center. Along with Storytelling as Best Practice, he is author of Why Bad Ads Happen to Good Causes and Why Bad Presentations Happen to Good Causes.
Andy is internationally known for his speeches and workshops on storytelling and has led over 500 trainings for clients including CARE, The Nature Conservancy, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, NOAA, the San Diego Zoo, MIT, Princeton, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, GE, Bank of America, and many others.
“The session with Andy Goodman in May helped me understand the power of my personal Oxy story and how it can encourage others to come back to Oxy.”
