Challenge & Selection

Storytelling It is one of the tools that I love and use a lot, as I can share experiences and share events, especially  stories full of difficulties and challenges, which we finally succeed in overcoming, the story enables us to give  positive energy to another, interact with them well, understand their needs more, and improve the work  environment with them. I study in an engineering school and specialize in informatics engineering, and we work  in groups on projects that are finally submitted to professors and evaluated according to their quality. These  projects are often related to the development or creation of a program and when we start working, most of the  students are at first full of positive energy, and it starts to fade after a few days Coordination and understanding  each other becomes almost impossible and this affects the quality of the project That's why I often use the story  to create a kind of positive energy and connect to help us understand each other.

Application

I have a story that I lived and used the storytelling, I worked one day with a team of school friends in order to  complete a commercial website project. We agreed in the first about all the ideas, and everything was fine after  a few days, then the university published scores. And most of the students were not satisfied with it, and this  negatively affected the completion of the project. There was less understanding between us and great anxiety, in  addition to the lack of motivation. After I noticed the matter, I invited them to change the place (Campus) And we  went for a walk near the beach.

Insight & Approach

When I felt that the tension had passed, I took the opportunity and told them when I got a bad note in  mathematics in the baccalaureate in the first test and how I take a deep breath and do more effort and finally got  the highest grade in the class in mathematics Most of them started to smile and began to recover the positive  energy, and this story opened the door to communication again and to return to complete the project.

The story had a great positive impact as it allowed the development of the project and the suggestion of new  ideas, and even the professor was impressed with the project and gave us a good mark.

I benefited a lot from this wonderful tutorial (Design Thinking) and learned a lot about using tools  of design  thinking , and especially Storytelling which I use a lot and I hope to develop my skills and use other tools.
