Stone Soup Résumés: Using Storytelling to Turn Your Client into an Opportunity Magnet

Presenter: Kim Mohiuddin

Recorded: October 28, 2011

Create a document that has readers racing to set up an interview before the competition does.

Storytelling has always been at the heart of good marketing. Today, it is becoming more widely used across all business writing platforms. How can we take the concepts of storytelling and apply them to résumé writing? In this webinar, we’ll explore:

Using storytelling to get your clients to delve deeper and provide better information.
Turning client stories into reader-centered marketing documents that engage decision makers.
Identifying trends across stories to create compelling brands and taglines.
Leveraging the power of storytelling while maintaining a businesslike voice and appealing to an ADD, Twitter-reading market.
Employing visual cues that help the reader scan the “story” to quickly get the context and results.

In addition to examining the theory and technique of storytelling in career documents, you’ll leave with valuable takeaways: story-oriented intake questions for your clients as well as storytelling résumé examples.

“Great marketing is storytelling...”

- Seth Godin, entrepreneur, author, and speaker

"Why was Solomon recognized as the wisest man in the world? Because he knew more stories (proverbs) than anyone else. Scratch the surface in a typical boardroom and we're all just cavemen with briefcases, hungry for a wise person to tell us stories."

- Alan Kay, now vice president at Walt Disney

“Storytelling emerges as a critical résumé-writing and interviewing tool. In a world as chaotic as we live in, where people are becoming increasingly accustomed to sound bytes of information, they still do need context. Storytelling provides a framework, context, and pathway to understanding.”

- Career Thought Leaders' Global Careers Brainstorming Day 2010 white paper
