  • Summary

  • "Stories are a blend of information and emotion"

    It's breakfast on day two at the Scottish Fundraising Conference and we're joined by Ishbel Smith to talk through the power and importance of storytelling in everything we do.

    Thanks to her experience as a commercial litigator turned third-sector consultant, we've got competitive debating on the world stage, distilling our connection to a cause, immersing yourself in knowledge and forest-eating rabbits. We talk about being curious, how to persuade, listening effectively and the three reasons we tell stories. There's just enough time to squeeze in the stories we tell ourselves, the comedians we are officially funnier than and (if you've got this far) our shortening attention spans. All delivered laden with Ishbel's passion shining through - impressive for such an early start.

    This is part two of a three part series from the Scottish Fundraising Conference.
