We are always telling stories, whether we realize it or not. We might as well get good at it. Good stories win people over. They provoke and inspire and inflame the human spirit. It’s a tremendous source of power.

Storytelling is a superpower that can change the way you and your people do business, so make every effort to change the culture of your company, organization, university, hospital, nonprofit, or wherever you work in order to ensure that it becomes an integral part of what people think, believe, and do.
Stories are very powerful. They grab and hold attention. But they do more than that. They also help people process information and they imply causation.
stories have the power to make us connect; stories make us human.
There is a continual narrative at work, inexorably being shaped and honed by our life choices. Storytelling provides the lens through which we can see those choices more clearly. It gives us perspective.
Storytelling is the best, most powerful tool for making the kind of lasting impression that can create new understanding, change minds, or even effect policy change.
Storytellers have a superpower. They can make people feel good and whole and right. They can inspire and inform. They can make people see the world in a new way. They can make people feel better about themselves.
Far from just being a way to differentiate us, our stories can help us to decide, plan, lead, sell, inspire, influence, persuade, rally, create value, build trust, foster connection and succeed by building better, more purposeful organisations and lives.
Storytelling: A tremendously useful tool to increase the longevity of your message in the audience’s mind. Stories spark emotions. People use stories to make sense of things. People learn from stories.
