things we'll talk about
- plan to discuss story-telling within organizations
- plan to share stories of personal experiences within organizations
- how do stories and collective memory within an organization influence its organizational culture?
- does an organization with a long history and an extensive organizational memory have an advantage over a similar, but newer, organization that does not have much organizational memory?
