Overview
Whether you’re delivering a presentation at an event, or convincing your manager to approve a new project or getting your colleagues to give you their full attention during a meeting, corporate storytelling can provide you the social power and influence that you need to persuade and influence anyone.
Why is storytelling so powerful? To answer that question, ask a movie director, author or songwriter. Stories move people emotionally. We all lean in when someone is telling us a story. Stories provide listeners powerful analogies that bypass our brain’s critical factor, and business (or corporate) storytelling forges connections to help people understand big ideas and abstract concepts in a simple way.
The Using Storytelling When Presenting and Persuading Others session comprises many of the most important lessons you need to craft a powerful message using the power of a simple story for your next presentation or meeting.
