Description

“The universe is not made of atoms but stories.’’ – Muriel Rukeyser   –

“The language of our mind is story language. If one would like to present its thoughts with stories, the audience will not resist this; on the contrary, they embrace the narrator’’ Robert McKee

Even starting with an irony, if it has a story, makes itself read. Nowadays, storytelling is a popular subject. When I talk about my story telling training that is designed for company life, in conversation with people, they say, “Hmm…  Story telling… You mean…!” No… Pardon me? Just as you take a photo of a story and send your friend on the Instagram and you do not add a story, this training is my Story Telling training. For that reason, storytelling training arose as an objection…

Because, one of very old skills of humanity and one of our characteristics that distinguishes us from artificial intelligence is our story telling. It is widely seen in the business life that those who have discovered the power of story use this power for the purpose of persuading people. No conversation is boring or difficult to understand in which there exists a story. To reinforce narration, to be instructive and not to make people bored; stories are the best way.

Even the most simple, boring daily subject of the world can be turned into a story when color, emotion and spirit is involved into it. Stories are one of the best ways of communicating our problems and thoughts in a live, permanent and strong way. In fact, stories are the only way of establishing a bond with people or masses confronting us. Through stories or our experiences that we convey with narration, we can express ourselves in a more successful, touchy and catchy way to the audience.

We believe that anyone can prepare effective company stories, using story telling canvas of design-driven thinking

Metaphors
