The Art of Storytelling and Business Analysis

 

You don't have to be a master orator to tell a good story. Everyone can tell a good story if you can put effective techniques and preparation into practice. This session will help you consider ways to adopt storytelling techniques in business and in your personal life to reach closer to your goals. 

At this presentation, we will look at how you can stand out from the crowd, whether literally in a social setting or when you present to an audience. During this session, the members of ‘The Capability Group’ at Nationwide will focus on how to:

  • enhance your message and communicate the goals you are trying to get across
  • use visuals, senses and emotions to aid your message, as truth be told, emotions plays a key role in every choice we make
  • connect with your audience
  • influence decision making and make your product, service or project memorable so that you leave a lasting good impression
  • demonstrate that time (and money) is worth being invested in you, your brand, your project and every aspect of your aspirations and dreams

The Cause, Removal and Prevention of Business Process Tangles

 

Business process tangles are a complicated and confused interaction of activities, without clear accountabilities, owners, inputs, and outputs. They often develop as companies grow and change, resulting in wasted time and resources. This session will explain how business tangles occur, how to fix them and how to prevent them. It will also explain why the ear buds in your pocket or handbag get tangled and how that relates to business process tangles.

 

Brian Hunt has over thirty years experience of business process design, improvement, and management in public, private and voluntary sectors. He specialises in removing process tangles and creating simplicity out of chaos.
