Example Reflection – Storytelling

Challenge & Selection

I work in a Public Library in Brazil and as a Public Service we get the false idea of stability. This  idea of stability bring us some problems.

The first one is that people don’t think about innovation, the main thought is “if something is  working until know, in the way that it is working,  it’s fine”.

The second is that people stop thinking about what more they could do, their work isn’t  visible.

The third is that if your work isn’t visible, people start to think about it’s importance. As a  public institution it will not be closed, but the investment will be smaller each year.

Studying this case we must recognize the main purpose of the library, that is it’s public and  focus in innovative actions to this public.

I believe that the Storytelling is the best tool for this work.

Aplication

First of all, a small group will work with all employees about the importance of innovation and  why it’s importante for us to come back to the main purpose of librarinship, the public.

This group will gather some information from the employees and this information  will be  available in our storytelling.

Part of the employees will be responsable for aplying an informal research with our public to  stabilish the main points that we could improve our work focused on them.

Finally we will work with the storytelling to organize our ideas, make questions, get answers in  na interative process.

Insight & Approach

The storytelling tool will provide us if a view of the possibilities that will bring innovation to our  system, proving new resources and facilities to our public, and it also may reach the  understanding of all employees, making them more confidente about the future.
