Want to connect with more purposeful storytellers from your area? STORY is organizing a series of local gatherings across the US for creative entrepreneurs, business leaders, and storytellers of all kinds. These "Salons" present an opportunity to go deeper instead of wider, to pursue curiosity and openness by learning from the diverse experiences of those around us. They are intentional, purpose-fueled, and allow a higher level of engagement than massive conferences. At a Salon, you'll hear from local storytellers, participate in guided conversations, and engage with other creative leaders from your own community in a casual but intentional atmosphere. These local gatherings are designed to connect the leaders of today with the leaders of tomorrow to form a global network of creative leaders ready to tackle our biggest challenges. Because we believe that collective leadership—bringing together people from different walks of life, vocations, and worldviews—is what's needed to create a brighter future. If you live near an upcoming Salon, you should RSVP now to get all the details. And if you want to help organize a Salon in your area, please reach out. Come connect, converse and collaborate with creative leaders from a variety of backgrounds and experiences in your community. And let's create a better future... together.

In economic development, collaboration with community leaders is a critical part of the development process. Business leaders, elected officials, and others hold the funding and the power to drive local economic development, and their motivations are often driven to benefit themselves (we’re all human). However, we must never forget that the target beneficiary of the work that we do is often lacking a voice in the room. If we never find ourselves challenging the status quo of local leadership, it’s probably time to invite some new voices to the table. As we work to create sustainable communities, we must ensure that the benefit of investment, growth, and job creation provides opportunities for all people and no one gets left behind.
