“Don’t just wait for the perfect story, take your stories & make it perfect” so you’re saying to lie; stats are much more important anyways, not your emotion tugging lies; and besides all that, if you deal with stats enough it all becomes second nature & you can make connections to other pressing issues & you start running numbers in your head all the time which makes you efficient & knowledgable whereas if you’re trying to get your points across via “perfect fiction stories”, you’ll waste a lot of time & probably just get points across that everyone is pretty much already aware of or most have thought of before; on top of that you’re probably not gonna have as much insight as the person who’s constantly running the numbers. someone could look at stats & still have a emotional responds & someone could still listen to your story & it have absolutely no affect on them, maybe even push them away. In a business meeting where there are your colleagues trying to sort though info to run & organized a multimillion dollar company you decide to tell them a story that points out more efficient methods of doing somethings that would save you X amount of dollars a year & by the end of it they ask why you wasted twenty minutes of their time to say that when you could’ve just been straightforward & got the point across in a few minutes? Your emotional story hasn’t helped anyone or anything. Please don’t lead people to believe that their emotions are more important then facts because you’re explaining it as if someone actually benefited from either of those speeches but the fact is it was just a waste of time. (just to clarify nobody actually benefited from anything said, it only made you sympathize with the girl, and there was no concussion to the first story) On a side note you’re trying to convince me that someone who was paralyzed with fear from being asked “Where do you see yourself in five years?” Went on to be successful in anything is just too big of a lie for anyone to believe, but I guess that’s the whole premise of this video, that lying in a professional environment is ok.

The message may be OK but to deliver it by telling a fake story of a “failed exam” is not.

Wow, I’m blown away. It’s so true, why leaders don’t tell stories and on Banking side, no one has time to share anything but data. Thank you for a great talk 🙂

So the human brain overvalues anecdotal evidence over congregate abstract data so if your data is real create anecdotal evidence to bring the data into view.

how people understanding the meaning of stories by learning to understand starboy always writing stories and people always living on memories of Greatest man Alive
data word using for human being to mirror personality in reality changing human beings to self education teaching no data need to learn and data require to copy in education business
idea worth sharing and nothing idea of understanding subject of video and comment
proud on sharing to caring for defining courage
real time of comment define innovation
virtual time of vi#### define nothing just data
science people nowadays believe in magics not science

Excellent coordination between sub conscious mind where emotions are stored and conscious mind which is rational by forming a story and make a convincing communication. Wonderful.

Storytelling (fiction) from leaders is called propaganda and it’s been well documented throughout history. How long does the supposed change in a human last after hearing a story? 🥱

I like that she spent a fair portion of her speech clearing the misconception that decisions are made ‘either rationally or emotionally’. In reality, our rationality merely fulfills the demands our emotions have already stated beyond our conscious awareness. This hierarchy is so deeply entrenched, you can even observe it when calculating cold math in your head: Solutions ‘feel’ right, they are satisfying, whereas mistakes are the opposite. Our unconscious emotion rewards or punishes us in each step of our conscious decision making or problem solving process; we are slaves to it yet allowed a soothing illusion of free will.

Storytelling is a systematic way of learning and accepting doubt around a circumference within a binary accomplishment of everyday life.
