Storytelling for online meetings and presentations
In a virtual environment, the difficulty of communicating, motivating, inspiring and convincing co-workers or stakeholders of ideas and projects has increased significantly. Influencing happens when you’ve reached people, and helped them to understand, remember and get inspired. Stories are not only much more memorable than data, they also sweep us up and involve the listener in the story by relating. We think in stories all day long. That’s how we are wired. When we hear a story, we usually apply it to our own experiences, and this therefore draws the listener in, because our brain is searching for a similar experience; thus, we make it our own. Stories are a very powerful tool to not only share information, but also very effective in keeping people’s attention, and truly engaging listeners, because your ‘audience’ will become involved not only with their heads, but also their hearts.
In this webinar, we help you understand the effective building blocks of an effective story and the best way your story can be delivered in order to achieve optimal effect. Learn how you can infuse stories in your sales pitch, in a job interview and with your communication to your stakeholders.
