Speaker request: "Fail Tales," a storytelling event in celebration of failure

Atlassian Community is holding a July event in celebration of failure.

It uses the intimacy of storytelling to influence attitudes in trying new things, improving beliefs about ourselves and our teams, and ultimately, changing the culture of work.

In this event, we would like to feature three vulnerable stories about managing failure. These stories should not take longer than 5-7 minutes to tell, but should incorporate the spirit of taking risks and being open to opportunity. At this time, we are looking for our keynote storytellers.

If this sounds like you, please submit a one-minute video of yourself summarizing your story through the >>Fail Tales Speaker Submission link<< by April 30, 2022. It should include:

  1. Who you are now or were at the time of your story.

  2. What you and/or your team was trying to accomplish.

  3. Why your team approached your goal in the way it did.

  4. The results of what happened and how it made you feel.

  5. What you have learned.

If chosen, you will work with an Atlassian presentation coach to rehearse your story. And, receive a thank you gift--a speaker kit so you're all presenter ready. The bright 10″ ring light will keep you well lit and the studio-quality mic will make sure your audience hears every word.

Apply to be a keynote storyteller today!
