Facts tell. Stories sell. π
And there's real science behind it: when you tell someone a story, brain scans show their brain activity starts to sync up with yours.
A list of facts doesn't do that. A good story does. β¨
It's why we forget the stats but remember the tale. And it's the single most useful skill for anyone who wants to be listened to, whether that is at work, on stage, or just at the dinner table.
The best part? Storytelling is a learnable skill. We practise it every week at Sunrise Toastmasters. π€
