GovCIO Media & Research Podcasts

In the final episode of our Storytelling Miniseries, we discuss building meaningful relationships through storytelling. Department of House and Urban Development’s Director of Business Operations and Technology Sarah Moffatt, Program Manager at the Department of Energy’s Office of Sustainable Environmental Stewardship Cate Berard and IBM’s U.S. Federal Civilian Agency Business Development Leader Lauren Craig discussed why building connections is so crucial in storytelling and how the relationships you create can have a lasting impact on your career.

They also shared tips on how to ask better questions, practice active listening and pace the flow of information to avoid overwhelming your audience. The leaders discussed how these practical tools can help federal leaders grow their careers.
