Storytelling 

 Storytelling telling is an important human activity for sharing experiences , bonding and   deciding on solutions through vivid verbal and visual accounts . I am a design student ,   and to develop each product , I conduct research , talk to people through various   mediums . Listening to their stories , experiences helps me empathize with them .   More   often than not , these people consider us outsiders and find it difficult to trust us . The   main challenge is to make them feel comfortable . During research , I spend a lot of time   with these people , trying to understand their lifestyle , where they come from , their hopes and goals , and what their issues are . Stories generate questions and questions expand the breadth and depth of stories , leading to lots of innovative thoughts and ideas . I use this   information as the base for my ideation and product development . 

 Application 

 When I was designing a pressure cooker , I went door - to - door , to different people ’s   homes trying to understand how they used the product . I met a lot of different people ,   mostly women who were homemakers . While talking to them , I realized that they   were n’t very comfortable talking to me as they did not know me , so I would share my   personal experience with pressure cookers to engage in conversation . I met a student ,   and I told her how I had never cooked before and just closing the lid was problematic for me , and she told me how she found it very heavy and we bonded over being bad cooks .   Conversing with an older women however , was more difficult , because they thought a   young student would n’t understand them . So , I shared an anecdote of how my mom   once dropped the cooker because the handle broke off , and these women had so many   anecdotes to share . 

 Insight and approach 

 Using the information I had received , I prepared storyboards , to show the use of pressure cookers . Storytelling was n’t just a tool I used while gathering information , but also to   display that information better . I believe Storytelling helps explain the interconnections   among people in situations and settings , teaching broad lessons that engage real human   beings . Listening engages people ; and empathy is an essential and fundamental   component in the process . 

 I think the next time I would approach a challenge in a similar manner , since it does n’t   just help in developing a better product , but also helps me grow as a person . During this   course I learnt that my learnings as a designer would n’t just help me design better   products but provide a better service .
