Programme Overview
“Storytelling” is one of the forms of creative expression humans use to comprehend and communicate information and experiences. Stories enable people to give meaning to their existence, pass on knowledge, change behaviour, understand & learn from their history, and plan strategies for the future. It has been observed that humans can simultaneously activate up to seven areas in their brains while listening to stories, and it is worth noting that the human brain’s image-processing zone works 60,000 times faster than the language-processing zone during storytelling sessions. Stories have been a natural and intrinsic form of human communication and have been a powerful and effective means of connecting, persuading, influencing, and leading people.
Programme Objective
The course is designed with the following specific objectives and learning outcomes:
Programme Content
This is a hands-on, practice-oriented course and hence designed as a workshop. This program will actively involve the participants in learning the technique of storytelling by practising each of the themes discussed in the class. The program will cover the concepts of storytelling, elements and techniques of effective storytelling, and the use of humour. Post establishing a strong foundation on the concepts and techniques of storytelling, the program will focus on crafting stories to shape values, influence & persuade, tell stories on backgrounds of data, build rapport, and overcome objections.
