Want to make your message stick?
Here’s why storytelling is your ultimate leadership tool.
In this episode of the Multifamily Collective, we’re exploring why people believe and remember stories over raw data. The reason lies in a psychological phenomenon called vividness bias.
When facts are wrapped in emotionally charged stories, they activate our emotions and become far more memorable. Here’s how you can use storytelling to inspire and lead effectively:
Start with Emotion: Like music before a sermon, emotion prepares your audience to receive your message.
In business, that means crafting stories that resonate on a personal level.
Embed Facts in Stories: People don’t remember statistics; they remember how those statistics made them feel.
Tie your data to anecdotes for maximum impact. Create Shareable Narratives: A great story spreads. Want your team to embrace a new idea or initiative?
Tell a story that’s easy to repeat and hard to forget. Lead with Inspiration: Stories are the fuel for culture-building. They instill values, reinforce vision, and drive action far better than a bullet point list ever could. F
acts matter, but turn them into a story if you want them to stick. Your team will not only remember—they’ll retell.
