Yamini Naidu says clarity is everything when it comes to telling purposeful stories.
It’s in doing the hard work of clarity that we drill down to the absolute nugget – the absolute reason for telling the story in the first place, and connecting with our customers.

Yamini’s three techniques to find clarity and tell great stories
-
THE THREE P’S OF STORY TELLING
Collect anecdotes and story ideas from the news, TV, people around you, things you see in daily life and keep them in a list on a platform like evernote to refer to.
You don’t have to know immediately what you’re going to use them for.
Then you need to think, how can I make the story personal? How can I weave a plot around it? What purpose does the story have?
-
CARRY A NOTEBOOK AND PEN
ALWAYS note down your ideas (ED NOTE: as you will forget them for sure if you don’t!)
