We've all heard that storytelling is an important skill to have as a designer (or member of society), but what does that entail? What does it all mean?! That very question led Jamie Dixon to some answers that he put in a book called The Story Habit - and he joins us this episode to tell us about it.   Please rate and review the podcast! Also, comments, questions (and stories) are welcome on twitter: https://twitter.com/skilledby   Tips for improving your storytelling skills: - Watch for nodding heads. When people are agreeing with you, that's when you can challenge them. - Build a habit of noticing change. Change is where the stories are.   Big thanks to Jamie for sharing his time and expertise!
