KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Stories are a highly effective way to convey your message, but how you deliver them makes a big difference.
• Set the scene to engage your audience. Place the character(s) in their environment.
• At some point in the story you create a tension point, raise the stakes, and emotionally engage your audience.
• Drop hints that there is something big coming, an idea.
• Keep your audience predicting what comes next - engage their brains.
• Describe things in ways that engage people’s senses e.g. the air smelled and tasted salty.
• The tone, texture, inflections, and rhythm of your voice are powerful.
• You need a key message, several messages that support that and some takeaways. Then you create the story.
• Come back to your high point at the end and re-state your main message.
• The most successful brands use stories to connect with people in memorable ways.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We're using all of these amazing elements of the story to engage the brain.”

ABOUT THE SHOW

People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far, we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life.
