The Technology of Storytelling

“In 6,000 years of storytelling, people have gone from depicting hunting on cave walls to depicting Shakespeare on Facebook walls.” (Joe Sabia)

iPad storyteller Joe Sabia introduces us to Lothar Meggendorfer, who created a bold technology for storytelling: the pop-up book. Sabia shows how new technology has always helped us tell our own stories, from the walls of caves to his own onstage iPad. Joe Sabia investigates new ways to tell stories — meshing viral video and new display technologies with old-fashioned narrative.

You will hear many people talking about how important stories are but few organizations invest in developing the ability in their people to tell stories well. I wonder why?
