The power of storytelling is unquestionable. We are all storytellers and we live our lives through a network of stories.
The cornerstone of the International Storytelling Center is a belief in a single, immutable principle of life—storytelling. People crave, remember, and honor stories.
And now, after years of scientific research in 17 different fields, analysts conclude that storytelling is our most powerful tool for effective communication.
Each of us has the power to tap into our stories, our narrative assets, to become better communicators—to entertain, to share our history and culture, to spread knowledge, to persuade, to advance a cause, to teach, to dream a vision of the future.
The International Storytelling Center is a 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization.
