At Catapult Media, Storyworks.ca provides resources and strategic services to support the shaping of narratives that engage people in the process of change.

Stories create meaning, shape perspectives, provide context and help us navigate the world. As Robert Dickman explains: “A story is a fact, wrapped in an emotion that compels us to take an action that transforms our world.”

What great stories can do:

Storytelling illuminates for us the interdependencies which are fundamental to influencing change. Stories adhere us emotionally to facts and enable us to locate ourselves in a new blueprint of the future.
