Freie Plätze:
The Effect of Storytelling in a Scientific Context
How can you invite others into your scientific world?
How can you create a lasting impact within your community, but also at conferences, in cooperations or in networks?
An essential criterion for success is to make your scientific work visible and audible in an understandable, convincing way.
Narrative thinking (the telling of and listening to stories) always comes from something specific, from experience. It establishes connections between facts, emotions, attitudes and actions.
People think in stories and pictures – the method storytelling focusses on this exceptional human resource.
In this practice-oriented workshop you develop your ability to use different tools to tell interesting, authentic stories in a scientific context. You will also train to establish and hold connection to different types of audiences.
