Speaker: Donna Cheung, Co-Founder & Executive Producer of Wakefield Productions
Donna and her husband Nouver started Wakefield Productions in 2011. As Executive Producer, Donna’s role is to identify and engage in heartfelt storytelling that creates awareness for organizations and helps them build long-term brand loyalty with their audience.
In our interview with Donna, we’ll discuss:
- How Wakefield Productions was started
- The value of storytelling for businesses and organizations
- What makes a good story and how businesses can tell better stories
- Examples of working with entrepreneurs to identify their heart and communicate that through story
- How she listens for God’s voice while making business decisions and how she takes small risks to follow promptings to test if it’s from God
