Summary:
It is well established that being a good storyteller is a useful skill in careers (and not just for journalists and poker players). We need to tell stories all the time — to position ourselves in the job market, to pitch a new business idea to investors, to explain why a failure was actually a success, and so on.
1. Keep it simple.
2. Openings and closings are very important.
3. Be mindful of your story’s spine.
4. Make sure not to alienate your audience.
5. Tell the truth.
