Reflection – Storytelling

Challenge & Selection

The tool that I used was the tool of Storytelling. As a college student who don’t have any  working experience, I find that Storytelling is the most familiar tool for me. I often use this  approach to introduce my idea related to the discussed lesson in the class. Usually, I use this  approach especially when I have to do a presentation in front of the class. It’s because the  presentation material usually is a new material that I need to tell the other friends and I have to  make them understand about what I talked about. So, I prefer to use a storytelling tool because  storytelling allow us to deliver the material in an easier way. Besides that as we know that  storytelling allows us to create energy, passion, and excitement around something & allows us  to make strategy accessible.

Application

So, my story about storytelling is when I have to present my business idea in front of my lecture  and the expert. My lecture suggested us to deliver our business idea in a storytelling style. So,  my friends and I start to make the PPT as simple and fun as possible, and we try to not put too  much text in it. So, when the day came, my friends and I started to present our business idea in  front of the lecture, expert, and our classmates. We started the story about the background of  our business idea, we told them that there were so many people who have difficulty in finding  gifts for their relatives. We even share our own stories, such as when we have difficulties to  find present for our friend’s birthday.

Insight & Approach

After we ended our presentation, the expert told us that at that time he realized that surely there  were so many people who experience it, the difficulty to find gifts. He also said that our story  was really relate to him because he also had experience it before. And finally, he said that our  business idea is quite good to be developed and of course it’s still needs some improvement  but overall, he said that our business idea is really relatable and make sense.

By studying this course, I realize that there are so many ways for us to discover and develop  our idea. And honestly, I didn’t know that storytelling could be an approach to deliver our idea  before, but because of this course I know it now. I think that in the next opportunity I would  still use this approach and practicing more to make it perfect and it’s not impossible that I want  to try other approach such like visualization or may be mind mapping because I think both of  them are really worth to try.
