This is backed up in science and neurology we can get people on our same same wavelength

MRI scan from research by D Hassan midn sync

When we tell stories both the storyteller and the listeners brains respond.

Our minds actually synch together its know as neurocoupling We are hard wired to try and understand each other (scouser)

Stories activate parts of our brains that allows the listeners to connect and form their own ideas and experiences around the story being told

This is marketings very own vulcan mind meld

BIG WARNING..Symptom of synthetic marketing / fabricated culture.

VIDEO

WestJet master stroke

They cared about their audience, they did a lovely thing for some passengers.They made a promise to do a good deed based on the number of shares.

Who came up with the idea?The customer service department?The HR department?

THE MARKETING DEPARTMENT

STUNT not the feel good department

They made damn sure they caught every second of the experience on camera and even filmed the making of it too.

Im not being cynical, Im demonstrating the corporate value of understanding how to manipulate human emotion.Im highlighting the value of building this into a plan, a process and an outcome that adds value to a business otherwise whats the point.

Stories should just end the end is a catalyst for the next story

The great things about a story is that they live on, and keep getting toldCreate anticipation. Keep your EVP alive showing candidates the experiences that resonate with them

Dont get to caught up in your brand history and heritage (by all means honor it), but look to now and the future as well people will want to be part of shaping the next chapters in your stories, which is a new chapter for them

Stories will be the foundations for trust and loyalty with people. encourage your audience to tell stories for and about you
