Abstract:

According to marketing specialist David Beriev, “Storytelling has always been an integral part of our lives. But stories are more than just entertainment. Starting back in the ancient times, people have used stories to communicate, learn, and connect with each other. Stories allow people to share knowledge and emotions, identify truths, find themselves and their place in communities, and make sense of the world they live in. And thus people are conditioned to look for stories in order to make decisions — in order to find value.”

To be effective in business and personal life, you need to know how to communicate well. Storytelling is an integral part of that effectiveness. A good story has five essential elements. The more you develop the skill of capturing people’s attention, the more you can lead, resulting in desired outcomes. Dea Irby will cover those elements by example and through a story creating exercise.

• Hear a story
• Learn five essential elements of storytelling
• Learn an outline for creating a story

Abstract:

In the absence of profit motive, it can be difficult to assign economic value to public and non-profit sector initiatives. Despite these challenges, quantitative analysis of programs and projects are an important part of the sound financial stewardship of public resources. In this presentation, Michael will discuss the policy analysis process and the development of cost-benefit analyses for public sector projects. A special focus will be placed on the quantification of economic benefits using a variety of methods including market analogs, intermediate goods pricing, travel cost analysis, and hedonic pricing. The presentation will wrap up with a discussion of discounting, time horizons, and sensitivity analysis of quantitative benefits.
