THE 30 DAY
CONFIDENT COMMUNICATION CHALLENGE
Alright everyone, welcome to Day 24! Today, we’re exploring the power of Emotional Connection in storytelling and how it helps with Building Team Cohesion.
Think about stories that have really stuck with you – they often evoke some kind of emotion, right? As a leader, sharing stories that tap into emotions like joy, empathy, or a shared sense of overcoming adversity can strengthen the bonds within your team and create a stronger sense of unity.
For your one-minute video today, I want you to share a story that evokes a specific positive emotion that’s related to your team’s achievements or journey together. This could be a story about celebrating a success, supporting each other through a challenge, or a moment that fostered camaraderie. As you tell your story, allow your own emotions to come through authentically, as this will help your audience connect emotionally as well.
After you’ve recorded your video, watch it back and notice the emotional tone of your delivery. Did you feel connected to the emotion of the story? Do you think your story would evoke a similar feeling in your team? Note down one moment in your story where you felt the emotional connection was strong, and one area where you could perhaps enhance the emotional resonance tomorrow. Let’s build those stronger team bonds through heartfelt stories!
