TMYS Academy is curating a series of learning exchange with inspiring achievers across sectors on various topics related to historical, emotional, social, and professional storytelling.
Author and Founder Koral Dasgupta says: “Every era, every business, every entity has their own stories. Those are important for creating a brand and for communicating a legacy. While there is no dearth of storytellers, effective storytelling is a skill that needs to be nurtured. Good storytellers connect with the audience better and hence can pace up their reach towards personal and organizational goals. With TMYS Academy in place, they can now learn from the best in business.”
TMYS Academy has initiated a Youtube Channel that broadcasts conversations on the art and science of storytelling, to analyze stories as an emotion and as a business. People are invited to subscribe and receive bi-weekly notifications.
TMYS Academy’s think tank includes great conversations on thought-provoking topics with Prof. Robin Dunbar (University of Oxford), Prof. Jon Cook (East Anglia University), Deepali Naair (IBM), Ajay Arora (Hero Corp), Prof. Leonard Cassuto (Fordham University), Prof. Brian Hatcher (Tufts University), Saurabh Shukla (actor), Prof. Aruni Kashyap (University of Georgia), Swami Narasimhananda (monk and editor of Prabuddha Bharat), Prof. Sayantani Dasgupta (University of North Carolina), Arunava Sinha (professor and translator), Prof. Vikram Kapur (Shiv Nadar University), Joy Sengupta (actor) and more are scheduled in the days to come.
Sessions will cover the skills of storytelling and storytellers, interpretation of stories, translation into multiple presentation formats and languages, attitude of the audience, and more. Panels will also explore how learning can be sourced and applied creatively instead of staying confined in text-books or rule-books.
Initiated by https://tellmeyourstory.biz/ - a story network, TMYS Academy is a virtual summit aiming to stimulate leadership attitude through unique story-based talks that help innovate learning content for participants in education & industry.
