Story Telling

There are many stories

But according to some, there are only 10 plots in fiction

What plots do you know?

Some of those plots are:

Cinderella—under-regarded, downtrodden overlooked boy or girl overcomes all odds and comes out transformed the winner (Sam Witwicky in Transformers; Luke Skywalker)

Romeo & Juliet —boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy finds girl—happy ending = Rom Com; tragic ending = Shakespeare

Achilles—The fatal flaw; the most powerful hero is brought low by his weakness

Beauty & the Beast —Little Red Riding Hood in reverse—the ugly monster is transformed

Summary: Story Telling & Visualization

Story Telling

Tell a dynamic story, not a “We collected data, analyzed it, and here are the results” story

There are only a few plots; select yours

Tell the story with visuals at the right level for with a targeted message to the audience

Leave the audience with one memorable line (ROI of 21:1 or Decrease Scrap & Increase Performance)

Visualization

Use graphic representations when possible

Make sure they are simple & clear

Use variations to help tell the story (e.g., variations on survival curves)

Create Infographics to summarize the story in one slide

19


Activity

Break into triads

Quickly assign roles:

−Story teller

−Audience (e.g., training manager, HR Director, CEO, etc.)

−Observer / Coach

Tell a story and give feedback

Rotate roles so everyone gets to tell a story
