4. Storytelling
Move over, public speaking. Storytelling is now the up and coming skill that everyone needs to have to succeed in life. Whether it’s at your workplace or with your friends, storytelling is a skill that will garner you rave reviews everywhere you go.
Excellent storytelling skills allow you to make an emotional connection with the other party. It lets you bring across your point with greater finesse and keeps the attention of your audience. The human brain is wired to remember information and messages if there is a story element attached to it.
Social Behaviour
There is even a scientific explanation to why storytelling is loved by every human being. When we hear a story that resonates with us, oxytocin is produced in our body. Oxytocin boosts intangible feelings like trust, compassion and empathy. At the same time, oxytocin positively influences our social behaviour.
