Challenge : 

 The challenge was a very unique one and quite relevant in the current environment of the Pandemic   that ’s ongoing . As a business , we ’re trying to open up our offices completely and ensure that normal   functions resume and clients and customers feel comfortable visiting our location with confidence . One   of the key challenges that we anticipated and later faced was with our own employees some of who   were scared and reluctant to get vaccinated as they feared the unknown which resulted in the   organization unable to communicate to their clients that every employee is vaccinated and clients can   safely and confidently do business with us . 

 Selection : 

 As part of the “ back to work ” core committee within the organization , I volunteered to overcome this   challenge and selected to use “ Storytelling ” as a concept to manage this . There was skepticism from   some of the committee members however , I was confident about sharing my own and some of the   people I am close to for using their experiences and tell those stories in overcoming this challenge . As   the challenge was already ongoing , I had to act quickly to overcome this as we wanted not to miss out   on an important time of our business window in the summer to ensure the challenge is met   conclusively . 

 Application : 

 As part of the exercise , I had to individually meet with the employees who were reluctant of getting   inoculated in the current pandemic . However , as a first step , I invited all of them to a common forum   and wanted to understand their reasons and share the benefits of the vaccine drive that the   Government is conducting and the benefits of the same . I also during the session shared the experiences   of mine when I had visited a country which was the worst hit in the pandemic and some of the stories   not only about suffering but also some of the amazing recoveries people have made from the virus due   to having the vaccine . I myself gave my own example of how I personally recovered from the virus very   quickly and without any symptoms due to the vaccine and maintaining a healthy lifestyle . I also shared   some of the recovery stories that I was aware of from my close associates and shared some of the   experiences I has seen when me and my friends ( from school ) went to distribute Oxygen Cylinders to the   caregivers for some of the people who were suffering from the virus . 

 Insight : 

 As I was sharing the various stories and experiences , most of the attendees were happy to hear the   benefits and agreed that they will give it a second thought and most likely after discussing with their   family and friends , will progress with the vaccination . This was a great insight for me that yes , the   concept of storytelling and real - life experiences really help in people understanding why we ’re doing   sometimes . However , some of the attendees in the session wanted a one - on - one session and we agreed   to do this . During such discussions there were some who shared more private information about their   reluctance to get inoculated as some had medical conditions which increased their risks of unknown , 

 one of them shared a really bad experience she had with her father who was paralyzed due to a   previous vaccination for over 6 months and never recovered fully . These experiences were also a big eye   opener for me as an individual and I got much more insights about their fears and reasons for not   accepting something which looked to me a straightforward decision . I managed to alleviate some of   their concerns however , it was also a different perspective for me to understand and get insight . 

 Approach : 

 After the meetings and the sessions , I had , I came back to the committee and discussed all the learnings   and we as a group decided on the best approach in such a situation . This triggered a discussion leading   to a slight change in the approach going forward . I did continue with storytelling and the learnings that   we had however , the approach got tweaked a bit to bring in real life examples i.e. , more people who   have actually gone through the journey themselves . This would bring in a more realistic and better   stories would be told providing more meaningful conversations . 

 Overall , the storytelling experience was quite an eye opener for the committee and personally I was   quite successful in getting most of the people to accept the proposal that I was putting across for them   to get vaccinated . People believe in real life experiences and stories and understand that someone has   gone through the same journey and practice which allows them to understand and accept the situation   and move forward .
