Tuesday February 18th, 2025

In the last sAIdaty session "The Magical Science of Storytelling: How Narratives Inspire, Connect, and Transform," Saritha Riaz, Service Solution Architect at Oracle, took our members on a journey into the neuroscience behind storytelling. Part of the sAIdaty with Oracle Programme, the session explored how stories trigger specific neurological responses that captivate audiences, foster emotional connections, and drive action. Attendees gained practical knowledge on crafting narratives that build trust and empathy while enhancing their communication skills. Practical techniques were shared to present ideas more effectively, ensuring they resonate deeply and leave a lasting impact. The session also highlighted how businesses can leverage storytelling as a strategic tool to engage clients, strengthen brand identity, and stand out in competitive markets. Through a compelling blend of science and art, the session demonstrated how storytelling is not just a means of communication—it’s a transformative tool for building stronger relationships and achieving business success.
