Why stories make us care when numbers don’t | Anthony Tasgal | TEDxNewcastle

Great work Anthony!

[@1TheShawnster]

Storytelling is perhaps the oldest form of human communication and what separates us from other species. Jargon seems to be designed to be familiar, and is akin to wearing a suit to work in a professional environment. It has certain utility but can stifle expression... which could be the point. I enjoyed this talk a great deal, as it really got me thinking on a rainy day.

[@anthonytasgal9883]

Glad you enjoyed it....

[@zone1hearing]

Excellent!

Homer, Virgil and.....Nero???? Odd

[@1TheShawnster]

It seems to me to be an intentional non sequitur. It definitely made me laugh. 😂

[@anthonytasgal9883]

...just a joke....😉

[@SoubhikDasMusicession]

We have forgotten the art of storytelling maybe because we are too invested in the art of storyselling....

1. Ironically, there is no story tying together this presentation. 2. So storytelling is power, and we should do more of it, as in the example of Brexit, which is not an example of how this power is dangerous? Whatever point he wanted to make seems to have backfired.

[@vrajeala666]

3. He presents a false dichotomy between stories and numbers. Ironically, Brexit undermines his argument again. Remember the red bus? It was definitely telling a story with numbers.

I love your intention, but fail to understand strategies in this/your own story You say jargon is the enemy of storytelling yet you use the words arithmocracy, falability and commoditised And you say good stories move, yet you prove your own story instead of moving me with your own story I think these are key things why I’m not moved by your talk and I think that’s very bad. Cuz it creates a negative associations with the idea of better storytelling

Good going my dear Raj and your team Wish you all the west 🙏

[@TheLRider]

Such a shame you just lost about 70% of your audience by utilising a Boris Johnson blatant lie as a good example of communication. Integrity is an absolute must in any worth while communication.

[@Nickveganyc]

Great story

[@anthonytasgal9883]

As I said, I am making a communications point, not a political one..

[@tajsalaam8850]

You missed the point. It could’ve been a lie, but the STORY convinced people to believe and agree.

[@TheLRider]

@@tajsalaam8850 It was a bare faced lie. We never did lose control.. When we can use samples of lies as a commendable example of communication skills you know we've lost it. Where's the feckin story in a three word sound byte which was an over simplified answer to a hugely complex situation. I love stories and agree that they are hugely powerful but this is definitely not an example of one.
