The Mindtools L&D Podcast

285 — How do we 'mine for stories'?

Mar 15, 2022

Why do learning professionals tell stories? How do we tell them to greatest effect? And where can we find them?

This week on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross G and Ross D find answers to these questions with the help of instructional designer, learning strategist and author Hadiya Nurridin.

We discuss:

  • Where stories are more effective than 'telling it straight'
  • How to identify the stories that you can share
  • How to help others find and craft their stories.
