Overview of Self, Us , Now format of Public Narrative

Guidelines:

Prepare your Public Narrative in 3 Parts:

Part 1 - Story of Self/Kwento ko - Story of one difficult choice you made in life.

Part 2 - Story of Us/Kwento Natin -

 Story of what we learned. How I applied Bridging Leadership OUTSIDE OF WORK. 

Final Output = Part 1 + Part 2 + Part 3 (Story of Now/Hamon sa atin Ngayon/Call to Action)

Your end output will be something like this, but only 4 minutes! The  example below doesn't have an explicit call to action.

Other examples of Public Narratives

These are not perfect examples of the "Self,Us, Now" format, pero very done.
