“That`s my story.” – How to use the art of storytelling to present yourself in scientific and private context

The human brain loves stories. Researches show that information packed in stories is much more memorable than blank data. Plus, it`s a lot of fun to tell stories. In this practical and playful workshop, we will explore what makes a good story and how we can profit from the power of storytelling. We learn basic patterns of stories and simple methods and techniques to get your message across effectively. We develop your personal story that enables you to have an interesting and joyful conversation that will leave you in good memory with the person you are talking to.
