Andy Goodman will present his workshop 'Storytelling as Best Practice' in honor of the Regional Foundation Center's 35th Anniversary.

According to the National Council of Nonprofits, ". . . despite mountains of gloomy news, there are still good stories about nonprofits, focusing not on 'charity work' or 'the needy,' but on connections and relationships--among individuals, families, volunteers, businesses, governments, and other points in a tightly woven web. These are not nonprofit stories, but community stories. Storytelling emerged onto the nonprofit communications scene with a roar, drawing the attention and expertise of many specialists in the field. Unlike generalizations or statistics, it provides context, emotion, and an opportunity to relate to others."

Andy Goodman is the eponymous founder of 'a goodman'--a communications consulting firm that helps public interest groups, foundations, and progressive businesses reach more people more effectively. He is a brilliant, witty, engaging orator who will 'teach do-gooders to do better'. Please do not miss this uncommon opportunity to hear Andy Goodman in Philadelphia--for free!
