Challenge & Selection

I work with developers and creative people and my challenge is to create something  interesting for tell my team work and involve new people in my team, in our story.   Design thinking is a great opportunity. Give us a possibility to tell story and improve starting  ideas.     My project, involve people that work remotely and this is really interesting because we need  to do brainstorming and all Design phases in remote, it’s difficult but not impossible.     I think that Storytelling is a great tool for create value. For confirm value and for increase and  share it with people, involved or not, directly.  In general I use a storytelling approach in a work team, technical or not, for engage people  and for share personal experiences.   Not all people prefire and think is a good idea to share info about work, about approach and  so on. I Think that if you dream to orient a work culture, storytelling is a great tool. Starting  from single experience, combined with stories you have a possibility to tell single and group  growth, stories and also mistakes and shapes.   Starting from storytelling, internal and external in a work team can also happen that people  became more innovative, more creative and also more productive.       Application    My experience about storytelling usage is really interesting for me. I would share with you.   I tried to engage new people from ICT university with storytelling. Starting from developer  stories, not about tech and hard skills but with a combination with different skills and  approach.     As I said, my team work remotely and we use different tool for make mindmaps, visual  presentation and also interview about people involved.    Designing with the developer, stories, are a “single book of life” tell about young guys in  Europe that try to build a way for work remotely.     I think that students, young people that need to find occupations, job and need to increase  themself need to have chance to listen a good story about them job opportunity. Is better I  think, is better because it’s like a security. A security to have a real, opportunity for work  concretely.   About work life balance for example. I using storytelling for create value about work life  balance about remote worker and remote developer. Telling a story you have a possibility to  jump from hight level to bottom level and it’s really interesting.     We used also Videoscribe tools for present our hight level stories about developers.

Insight & Approach

Talent involved in my project work with a different approach, with the will to exchange,  informations, experience and with a possibility to take part in a real interesting work project  and growth on it.     Dev, from different culture, from different profile made a great work together, with new value  proposition and new idea in backlog to develop.     Storytelling change the prospect, increase the reading possibility of the reality. You have a  possibility to connect and build like a mirror for understand better the reality and also the  facts around you.     Why is interesting in my case? because and the end work, remotely or not if is a story, if you  have a possibility to share and tell it you make something also for others people and the  feedback that you will receive is the most important things for you like, for your career, for  you growth experience.
