Webinar: The golden thread - why numbers numb us, but stories stir us

AMBA webinar "The golden thread - why numbers numb us, but stories stir us"


Date: 17 June 2021
Time: 13:00-14:00 Paris time
In a world that is DRIP [Data Rich, Insight Poor] everyone wants to get their message across, but we think data, facts, information and bullet points are enough. Wrong: they all go into mental ‘attention spam’, and are filtered out before they get a chance to reach consciousness and consideration, because its reliance on numbers, facts and ‘messaging’ only talks to what behavioural economists call our rational System 2 rather than appealing to the emotional power of System 1.

Storytelling isn’t just the best way of communicating or differentiating a brand, presenting or creating empathy with an audience. It isn’t even just a creative and enduring means to build your brand across all communications channels. Storytelling is also a highly-effective means to create a culture, to build a culture, or change a culture.

During this webinar, Tas will quote from his award winning The Storytelling Book his work on insight and inspiration, The Inspiratorium and his new book InCitations , to explain why we need to massage not message, how to find your golden thread, the ‘magic number 3’, and the power of headlines.
