Most presentations are boring. I remember not so long ago, I sat through a marketing presentation where the presenter went through PowerPoint slides for 45 minutes talking about death by PowerPoint. But here's the thing, people use the phrase death by PowerPoint all to time, and yet we forget. But there's one simple way to remember, and the solution is this, include stories or anecdotes in your presentation. Why do you think kids love bedtime stories? Why do you think we are called social animals? Unless you're a monk, being thrown in a solitary confinement is one of the highest form of mental torture, prisoners dread it. Do you know that long before the written word was invented, humankind rely on oral tradition to keep their culture alive. It is in our DNA to love hearing stories. It defines us as humans. But unfortunately, storytelling isn't that simple. It is not easy to be a good storyteller. For a start, we may not know where to find the stories, and second, even if we do, we may not know how to structure the story within a message. As a result, our message may sometimes lose focus even if the story is interesting. This week, you'll learn how humans process information and why storytelling is such a powerful technique. You will also learn the various ways of telling the story that will resonate with your audience. To ensure that a message stays focus, we will teach you how to structure a presentation that can create both excitement and suspense. At the same time, you will learn how to find those stories within yourselves and techniques that can help you take your audience along a metaphorical journey during your presentation.
