1. STORYTELLING
SECRETS: How to Tell
Stories that Captivate
Your Audience
Ronald Reagan was a master communicator because he knew how to tell
great stories.
The essence of public speaking is to:
Tell a Story, Make a Point
But what exactly makes a great story?
How do you tell good stories that captivate your audience members?
What kind of stories should you include your speeches and presentations?
In this 3 minute storytelling tutorial, you will pick up the 5 essential
elements for telling great stories (I learned this storytelling model
from Craig Valentine, the 1999 World Champion of Public Speaking)
To summarize the storytelling “formula”:
1. Your Story Must Have Characters
Who are the main characters in your story?
Give a hint about what your main characters look like so audience
members can visualize the characters.
2. Your Story Must Have a Conflict

2. Throw your main characters into a conflict.
The conflict is the hook of the story.
Without the conflict, you don’t have a story!
3. Your Story Must Have a Cure
The conflict needs to be solved in some way.
What’s the cure that solves the conflict?
The cure should help audience members overcome the conflicts they may
be facing in their own lives.
4. Characters Must Change as a Result of the Conflict
What personality/ attitude shifts do your characters undergo as a result of
having overcome the conflict?
How do they see the world differently as a result of having been through
the conflict?
5. Your Story Must Have a Carry Out Message
The essence of public speaking is to “tell a story and make a point?”
What’s the point of your story?
What’s the one thing you want your audience members to remember from
your story/speech/presentation? This is your Carry-out message that
audience members will go home with.
So, here’s the storytelling model. If you want to tell stories in your
presentations and speeches, make sure your stories include the following
five elements:
 Characters
 Conflict
 Cure
 Change
 Carry-out Message
