Who Doesn’t Like Stories?
Many like myself who are studying finance might think that storytelling is an irrelevant perk to have up your sleeve.
But I completely disagree and this is why.
A good story can help you make conversation with somebody and set the tone of a room where there might be more humor than stress. In my experience, good storytelling skills can take you a long way as you are able to socialize with people I am doing finance and in this field, the stories that might have value would be stories that include the financial market. People might even be interested in life stories explaining hurdles that almost held me back.
Everybody has a different perspective and a different taste in stories. Which makes for a great conversation. I am not you should practice storytelling every single but learning it little by little will help you improve your soft skill which will make you stand out more.
Great to have you with us Abhisek — I appreciate your perspective on storytelling here. I am wondering a bit more about your experience with writing and if you have any questions about the class so far. Is there anything I can help with or answer for you?
Oops! I see now that this was your second post. The link took me to the wrong spot. I’ve since figured that out and added a comment to your first post instead 🙂
