Thanks for giving us such great examples of storytellers. I love each one, although they couldn’t be more unalike.

We were talking earlier about how effective speakers appeal to people’s visual, auditory, and kinesthetic preferences. That’s exactly what storytellers do. With words and voice and gestures, without a single slide, they plant images and experiences in their audience’s imaginations. And often the image / experience people create for themselves is more powerful and lasting than anything else.
