Stories as Alternative to Smart Messages
I thought it was really great. I mean it was hard work preparing for it, harder than I thought. It was really worth it in terms of trying to kind of get ideas, very personal ideas over to other people and I think the people who were there, I thought were great in terms of attentive in terms of asking questions that indicated that they’d been thinking about what I’d said. I really think the whole idea of the way these sessions work. I’m really kind of pleased to have been engaged with it really.
I expect to come to others. I’m really now fascinated to hear other peoples’ stories. There was someone here today who's going to be talking the next time and I’m already thinking about things I want to ask him in anticipation of that.
I think that the concept of telling stories to promote ideas, promote your business, promote services that you think that people may want, is really important and it often gets lost in the kind of trying to send smart messages, sound bites, etc and I think that the idea of taking time to tell more of a story and trying to create circumstances by which people can listen to it is really good. And I think that being able to rehearse it with a group of people who are sympathetic and critical at the same time is really good.
Purposeful Feedback
Yeah, thank you. So, it was really really helpful for two main reasons. And number one, we practice telling stories a lot, so we get better at telling a story. We don’t necessarily know if a story is any good and so it was good to actually you know be in a position to purposefully get some feedback on a story that I was telling and but also this particular story is evolving. So, it’s something we’ve done for a long time but it’s taken on a new shape since we moved to a new city. It’s got a renewed energy behind it, we’re talking about it a lot more, we’re talking about it to, I guess, a more diverse group of learners if you like. And we’re specifically focusing on students with special educational needs. And that comes from a very personal place and so it was good to be able to go through the process of thinking about how we might incorporate this evolving aspect of what we’re offering. And the feedback was great, there were some really good suggestions that came back and I’ve been trying to keep those practiced and worked into what I’ve been telling people over the last week.
