Our panel discussion will include an introduction to The Professional Values & Story Index (PVSI). If you’d like to get in a storytelling mindset before our session, you can take a brief “story typing” survey that will help you understand what kind of role you play in the world that could be a foundation for how you communicate. During the session, Cindy Atlee will talk about how you can apply this approach to branding yourself and to developing better communications for an organization, product, or service.  Here’s the link to the free survey:  http://storybranding.com/site/take-the-pvsi-survey.php.

Event sponsored by the Masters in Communication Program at Johns Hopkins University.
