Preview
Free guides teach the concepts. This workbook helps you apply them. You will audit your current stories, build five ready-to-use templates, and practice for a full week until storytelling feels natural, not rehearsed.
Research from Chip and Dan Heath shows that 63 percent of people remember stories from a talk, while only 5 percent remember a statistic. Nancy Duarte adds that your listener is the hero, not you. This workbook puts both insights into daily practice.
Built on research from Chip Heath and Dan Heath, Nancy Duarte, and Nancy Duarte.
