2019: StoryEngine’s year in review
2019 was a year of development for StoryEngine, Loup’s narrative-based methodology that powers decision-making and connects organizations with the people they serve. We were proud to share stories that exemplified the passion, innovation, and ingenuity of organizations like eCampus Ontario, HiveNYC, and Hispanics in Philanthropy.
We’re also very excited to share that we prototyped and launched Your StoryEngine — our customized approach dedicated to helping professionals in flux define their purpose and advance their career (whether they’re feeling stuck, returning from family leave, or just tired of cookie-cutter professional development seminars). Read stories from Greg Bloom and Misty Avila, two of our wonderful prototypers.
Check out our favorite StoryEngine narratives from 2019:
Misty Avila — “Bringing people together for a purpose is the core of what I do.”
Greg Bloom — “We might wish that we could all agree to use one system, but the reality is that organizations have different needs for the same information.”
Ana Marie Argilagos — “Optimism is important in the face of extreme challenges. It’s resilience, the knowing that we can get through this. We’re all working together in the same direction.”
Jenny Negron — “Connections formed that would not have otherwise happened.”
Lainie DeCoursy — “There was a draw to working with this group of people with shared interests and goals. Something was magnetic about that, and the shared Hive identity.”
Yvonne Martínez Brathwaite — “We were able to create a space where people could safely share their struggles, while also giving them concrete strategies and space to think about how to make these collaborations work.”
Chris Lawrence — “It’s been the pivotal project of my professional life.”
Terry Greene — “Having all this work out in the open is really enabling.”
Essentials of Linguistics — “It will be a living thing that keeps getting revised and added to, and keeps getting better and better every year. That’s pretty exciting.”
Marginalized Seniors: Access to Health Care Information — “We need to give people enough opportunities to get the information they need in the way that they want to receive it.”
Turning nurses’ ideas into process improvements — “We want to produce teams that can tackle quality, cost and safety — for the caregiver as well as the patient — all in one improvement process.”
Training Ontarians for the eLearning Opportunity — “We’re offering people that are already highly skilled and knowledgeable with an opportunity to move into new spheres.”
