Shownotes
Today on the Take on Board podcast, I’m speaking with Suzanne Brown about the importance of storytelling for board members.
Almost straight out of school Suzanne talked her way into a job at the ABC, where she worked on everything from kids shows, news and current affairs, documentaries, drama and arts programs. Since the ABC, she’s been producing, writing and editing stories for industry, corporate, magazines, blogs, not-for-profits, and social impact projects.
Suzanne loves the power of a story to broaden perspectives, remind us of our common humanity, make people care and create change.
