Morning to you all,

I have a proposal for a future session for the ACB: all about story
telling.

I'm a strong believer that having a good story helps you in bringing
your message across.
Also using a story/metaphor helps you think on aspects that you would
never have thought off.

I recently came across these two websites: http://www.corporatestoryteller.be
, http://www.bemore.be and I like the idea of 'corporate' storytelling
very much.

I see a couple of points that could interest us from the ACB
perspective:
- making our own story for getting the ACB message across
- making a story for telling Agile that works well in Belgium
- links with persona's, user stories/ story maps for backlogs

These guys might not know agile, but they do know business/marketing
and maybe after some interaction we can convince them to brainstorm
around agile and story telling? And IMHO this is also something that
you can bring at the upper levels of management. It's also something
fresh (at least for me;-)

What do you guys think? Interesting enough for ACB?

I completely agree, I'm even member of a linkedin group about
corporatestoryteller.

I like the idea (seem to have missed Patricks post Sorry)

I propose David Hussman for this presentation.

he learned me that I was a story teller.
(And learned me to value it)
David is a great story teller

...on the dutch architectuur conference (LAC) in okt 2009, the subject of storytelling was prominent. It was stated that IT architects should have storytelling as a major competence. Of course this triggered some fierce discussions. So the subject is very much alive.
