Telling Stories That Connect with Storytelling Expert Francisco Mahfuz

Do you want to become more interesting than Netflix? Francisco is
a storytelling expert and one of my favorite professional
friends.


We met a couple years ago when he invited me to be one of the
first guests on his podcast, of which I am also the first repeat
guest. 


It only seemed right that after hours of talking about my work on
his show, he should have a chance to talk about his work on mine.
And let me tell you, this is one of the most practical episodes
in seasons.


We discussed the difference between motivational speaking and
being a content matter expert, what a story really is and why you
should be telling them in business, and where to find stories to
tell. Then we did a deep dive on story structure, the different
types and when they work, or don’t. 


And of course, Francisco shares his story of a chance encounter
with lasting impact.


Plus, he gives a very practical piece of advice to young
professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and
isolated world.
