Jessica Parker presented on improving storytelling and its results. She discussed how our brains are wired to love stories and how storytelling activates different parts of the brain. Parker explained that effective stories begin with understanding the purpose, audience, and context. Stories should have key elements like plot, characters, and conflict/resolution. Data can also tell a story if it is analyzed and adapted to the audience through appropriate visuals and delivery. Telling stories at work is a powerful communication tool.
