Participant reviews
From the ancient Greeks to established religions, from entertaining children to winning elections, stories have always been a powerful force for conveying information in a way that entertains, resonates, inspires and endures.
We can all tell powerful stories but many of us don’t. Maybe this is because we prefer the safer rhythm of everyday conversation or because we are unsure how to construct a story that will have the right impact, or maybe simply because we’ve never considered how stories can help us in our everyday lives. Whatever the reason, we are missing out on a powerful tool to communicate and unearth important truths.
