#60: UpSkill: How to Create a Compelling "Hero" for Your Audience

In this week's podcast we will take more insights from our Fireside Chat with Colleen Stewart.A few weeks ago she shared her insight on Joseph Campbell and The Hero's Journey, which goes back to the mid 1900s.Campbell obtained his B.A from Columbia and later studied in Europe. Upon returning to America, he couldn't get a job.Campbell then went to live with friends in Upstate New York. He read everything he could at the local public library for five years, which became a substitute for a PhD in comparative literature.What Campbell realized was that human beings tell the same stories, regardless of nationality or time period.This realization led Campbell to create The Hero's Journey, which is a key part of our storytelling template.At UpSkill, we are building a community of UpSkillers, learning and growing together.Please listen, subscribe and share!With decades of combined leadership experience, team of coaches, facilitators and subject matter experts can help to UpSkill your organization. We offer corporate training, coaching, e-learning courses and consulting services for:Inclusive LeadershipDiversity, Equity & InclusionCommunicationSoft Skills Senior Leadership TrainingEmail us: [email protected] Learn more: www.upskillcommunity.com
