Redefining storytelling: How to hack more buy-in with everyday/micro storytelling

In an industry as complex and fast-paced as cyber security, storytelling is a non-negotiable skill that must be taken advantage of. However, storytelling is often perceived to be a one-size-fits-all (TED-Talk style) approach, which means it’s not widely leveraged (or kept for special occasions only). Many Cybersec professionals are under the false impression that it takes a long time to prep and tell a story. But that’s simply not true. 

In this presentation, I’ll share what I’ve discovered along my own deep-dive into the art of storytelling, and how I’ve been leveraging this incredibly useful skill (and helping my others do the same too). From unexpected ways to use the art of storytelling, to some fascinating examples of storytelling (and micro-storytelling) in action, to the simple 3-ingredient story framework I use constantly. 

Whether you want to influence behaviour change, rally others behind a vision or explain technical things simply, this session will give you a fresh perspective on how to do that.
