The Power of Storytelling

Stories have power. They delight, enchant, touch, teach, recall, inspire, motivate, challenge. They help us understand. They imprint a picture on our minds. Want to make a point or raise an issue? Tell a story. — Janet Litherland

“Tell me a fact and I’ll learn. Tell me the truth and I’ll believe. But tell me a

STORY and it will live in my heart forever”. - Indian proverb -

STORY TELLING

“No doubt about it, the best speakers are good storytellers. The best writers are good storytellers. The best leaders are

good storytellers. The best teachers and trainers and coaches are

good storytellers.

WHAT SHE THINKS...

STRONG TELLING

How we tell stories seems to be a mysterious process that millions around

the world want to be able to do, but 99.9% effectively fail. Why is it so hard for

storyteller and audience to be one?

STRONG TELLING

What we communicate can change the lives of the writer and the audience.

However, why stories matter and how to tell them better may not be as mysterious

as it seems.

Julian Friedmann Says...

Julian Friedmann has worked with writers for over 40 years;

he believes understanding that storytelling is more about the audience than the writer will

result in better storytelling.
