The Art of Telling Your Story
We all have a story to tell – whether it’s about your solo trip, what you did with your first salary, or how you met the love of your life. But sometimes, we just don’t know how to tell it.
We all have a story to tell – whether it’s about your solo trip, what you did with your first salary, or how you met the love of your life. But sometimes, we just don’t know how to tell it. You can be the funniest person in the room, the most dependable team player, or have the craziest investor pitch, but how will your peers, recruiter, or investor know that?
Finding your voice can be challenging, especially if you're unsure where to start. However, what many don’t realize is that who is listening matters more than what you say. As you consider your future—whether studying abroad or pursuing a career—tailoring your narrative to your audience is key. That’s how they learn about your personality, your skills you have and the value you bring. Telling your story and telling it right can truly change your life.
That is why at Humans of Bombay, we have always believed that telling your story right can open doors of possibilities. And that’s why we have come up with our first ever course called, ‘How To Tell Your Story.’
In this course, you’ll learn how to use your life experiences to engage in personal conversations and how to use these experiences to build your professional network. We’ll tell you why telling your story is important, how you can find the intent behind your story, and how you can find the right audience for your story.
