How can you use stories to convey your message
Tips to tell your stories

Your host, George Torok tells you the three part formula to deliver an effective story.

Then you hear two stories from him, one a business story and the other a personal story. They're both effective when you understand your purpose.

George analyzes each story to point out the key parts and techniques to craft and deliver your stories successfully.

Episode 224

 

In this solo episode with George Torok, we explore:

- The power of storytelling in business communication
- How to find and craft compelling stories
- Three key elements of a successful story
- Using personal anecdotes to connect with your audience
- Common mistakes to avoid when telling a story


Key Takeaways:
- Practice crafting stories that are concise and relevant to your audience.
- Engage your audience with an intriguing opening question or bold statement.
- Use visuals and emotions in your stories to make them memorable.

"When you tell stories about yourself, don't make yourself the hero all the time. Occasionally, maybe, but not all the time, because then you sound self-centered, and it's hard to connect with you."

"The best stories plant visuals in the mind of your listeners and touch their emotions."
