Andy Raskin - The Art of Crafting a Strategic Narrative
Strategic narrative is the one story everyone in the company is telling. Leadership is the act of inspiring others to make a story come true. In that sense, the best operators are not only storytellers, but champions of a movement.
Andy Raskin will explore the art of crafting a strategic narrative to power growth and influence. He will share his framework for leveraging the power of narrative structure to enhance communication with teams, customers, and investors.
Drawing on his viral post "The Greatest Sales Deck I've Ever Seen" and his collaborations with leadership teams at companies like Gong, Dropbox, Salesforce, and Square, Raskin will demonstrate how aligning around a strategic narrative can drive success across all areas of an organization, from sales and marketing to product development, finance, and HR.

OG Summit will be happening at the Limelight Hotel in Denver. We have a reserved block for Summit Attendees.
If you'd like to stay elsewhere, other close hotels within walking distance are The Crawford Hotel inside Union Station, Sentral Union Station, Mint House Denver, Hotel Indigo, and The Oxford Hotel.
What time should I arrive and depart?
If you'd like to attend our welcome dinner, included in your ticket price, plan to join us by 6 pm on Wednesday, May 15th.
