What’s the formula to spark and then activate compassion? As you’ll learn in this episode - there is one! I had the pleasure of interviewing Amanda White, Director of Content for Local Projects in NYC.
Amanda is a leader in experience design on a global stage - with 17 years' experience in leading content development for design. She leads teams to transform concepts into impactful experiences for user engagement - with a specialty in strategic messaging and storytelling.
In our two-part episode, we discuss how to connect with visitors’ compassion, how compassion might be transformed into action, and how Amanda is inspired to tell the stories that create deep connections with audiences.
