With all credit to Sonja on this one, we’re toying with the idea of changing our title’s and job descriptions within The Narrative Lab.

For a loooong time, we have been uncomfortable with describing ourselves as “consultants”. While it may be true that we’re consultative in our way of putting together projects of an emergent nature for our clients, we are certainly not consultants of the traditional fold.

And so, we’ve been grappling with a title that brings together the blend of facilitation, consulting, advisory, presenting and sensemaking projects that we love to embark on.

How about … Conversation Agents?

At the heart of all we do is conversation. Whether it’s gathering stories for a sensemaking project, or having stories told back into an organisations to enhance communications … conversation is the root.

What say you?
