Everyone loves a good story, so why do so many scientists shy away from story-telling when discussing their work?
If you want people to engage with your science, you need to be asking yourself some important questions.
- You need to find out what your story is but even before you can do that you need to think about who your audience is.
- To get your message out to as many people as possible, you should also be asking yourself what your audience can do for you.
- Who are the stakeholders who are interested in your research and how can you make them pass the message on more widely?
- Once you know who your audience is, you need to think about the story. Who are the characters? Where is the emotion?
- Something to consider is that the story isn’t necessarily going to be the results of your research.
