ReplyDeleteAccording to Daniel Pink,stories exist where ever high concept and high touch intersect.
NASA, Xerox, and World Bank use the story telling process. I believe it is a worthwhile process because when you tell a story it’s easier to remember the information given. If you just learn it from a textbook it’s easier to forget the information, unless you like reading the textbooks. The story telling idea will help a worker not make a mistake that could cause damage to a company or themselves.
Stories are being used in medicine to help the patients explain theur ailments. A better understanding of the problem equals a better understanding of how the doctors can help. The other way they are being used is to create a better patient-doctor relationship. A better relationship between the two has been created by stories written on the parallel chart and it can make the patients stay at the hospital more enjoyable.

ReplyDelete1. According to Pink, stories exist where high concept and high touch intersect. He says that it is high concept and high touch because it “sharpens our understanding of one thing by showing it in the context of something else.” I agree that stories are High concept and High touch, because seeing the information being presented in a way that is more relatable than just facts would help most people learn things a lot more easily.
2. A. 3M, NASA, and Xerox all use storytelling to help improve their businesses.
B. I believe that this process is very worthwhile because it helps executives, who normally think in terms of just fact, connect more with their customers and staff, thus improving business.
3. Stories are being used to let doctors connect more with their patients by, instead of just examining the ailments, they examine the patient’s life, helping them to better understand the patient.
A. Dr. Charon uses storytelling to develop a better relationship with her patients, leading her to better understand what might be afflicting them. Also, Dr. Charon uses this stronger doctor-patient bond to help her patients cope with the loss of health, leading them to have a quicker recovery.

2. The three companies that have used this process are NASA, Xerox, and World Bank. Yes, I do think this is a worthwhile process because when many people here a story they remember it easier.
3. Stories are being used in medicine by the doctors telling them to their patients. These stories help doctors explain to their patients their problems and/or concerns. These stories help a lot so that the doctors can find better ways to help their patients. Dr. Charon uses the help of stories to improve their patient’s health by requiring narrative competence. “The competences that human beings use to absorb, interpret, and respond to stories.” She also says that stories cannot heal the sick but combined with modern technology they have an undeniable healing power.
1. The author says that story come from where high concept and high tounch intersect.
ReplyDelete2. The three are:
NASA
Xerox
StoryQuest
3. The medical system can “completely eliminate the paerson’s story.” The say that “the medicine sees anecdote as the lowest form of science.”
a. When her patients are explaining their stories the doctors reapeated stories of their own. Some doctors broaden their inquiry. They ask the patient where it hurts then the doctors ask them about their life.

ReplyDelete1.Stories exist in the place that high concept and high touch intersect. It is high concept because it sharpens the understanding and it is high touch because the story has an emotional punch in it.
2.A. There is the NASA, Xerox, and The United Kingdom is three companies mentioned in the story.
B. Yes, I do because it shows what people can do and it helps them out a lot because they get things done and it helps them out in the long run. It helps them out in the building they work in, in many different buildings.
3.A. There was a story about the people who create stories of themselves and the doctors would interrupt after 21 seconds. Now doctors wait 23 seconds before interrupting. Also that the doctor not only needs to give medicine but listen to the patient and it would help the patient get better.

B. I do think that it is a worthwhile process. That being said I also think that it takes up a lot of time.
3. Once they started to tell stories they made the patients feel better. I believe this happened only because the patients they used haven’t been talked to in a while and they like the company. But they don’t tell you that.

ReplyDelete1.) According to the author, story exists where high concept and high touch intersect.
2.) A. 3 Companies that use this text are NASA, Xerox, and Story Quest.
B. I believe it does help and is better because I myself feel as though I would be able to grasp the concept better than just reading manuals or having classes on the subject. I also believe it gives direct emotional connection rather than informational text.
3.) Stories are being used in medicine because they take a seminar where they are to listen to stories in addition to their science informational classes. This way, instead of getting computer-like questions, they broaden their inquiry by learning to listen more empathically. As I said before, this creates an emotional understanding and connection.
A.) She realized that everything in her career revolved around stories and could easily be turned into a narrative. She also believes that illness itself, unfolded as a narrative. Because of these to assumptions made by Dr. Charon, she would have the patients explain their illness as a narrative and have a cause of the illness.

B. No, because a lot of people can’t comprehend things they read
3. “Stories—that’s how people make sense of what’s happening to them when they get sick. So I guess they mean a story can relate to the situation and the resolution is the medicine.
a. She does these stories so her patients can comprehend their illnesses. They also do it for students to comprehend their lessons and not ask too many questions.

ReplyDelete1. According to the author where do stories exist?
The author explains, “Stories exist where high concept and high touch intersect”. It is high concept because it helps our understanding by putting it in another situation, for a better understanding. A story is high touch because it can help you relate emotionally, also for a personal better understanding. Basically, where high concept and high touch come together you can find a story.
2. In the author's section The Story Business he talks about businesses relying on storytelling to train some of their employees.
a. List three companies from the text who use this process.
b. Do you believe that this is a worthwhile process? Why? or Why not?
Three companies from the text that use this process.
•NASA
•Xerox
•StoryQuest
Yes, I do think this is a worthwhile process because if it can teach the human mind better with stories than with manuals or classes, than I do think a lot better.
3. According to the text how are stories being used in medicine?
a. Using at least 2 examples from the text explain to me how Dr. Charon uses the concept of stories to improve the health of her patients.
She explains how examination consists of narratives. The patient starts by telling the doctor what’s wrong. She explains how listening to narratives can better help you with the patient. Narratives help relate better for a better understanding for what the problem is. Also asking more personal questions such as “Tell me about your life” can help as well. Listening to patients stories give a greater understanding for diagnosis.

2. A . Xerox, NASA, Hewlett-Packard
B. Yes, if you tell people in specific detail how to do something, they will learn how to do their job and do it well.
3. When they tell stories the illness unfolds as a narrative. By combining modern technology with
undeniable healing, there is a possible cure.
1) According to the author, stories exist most from our experience, our knowledge, and our thinking. I think that what he stated was true because we could write a story that base on our own experience or we also could write it base on our relative’s experience.
ReplyDelete2) A. – NASA
-Xerox
- StoryQuest
B. I do believe that this is a worthwhile process because to become successful, workers need to get like suggestion from the storytelling. After they heard the story, they would learn how to do their job carefully and to prevent mistakes that could happen anytime.
3) The first example would be on page 113, Charon told that to be a good doctor, you need to their stories. The second example would be on page 113, the second paragraph, it says that instead of asking the patient “Tell me where it hurts”, it’s becomes “Tell me about your life”. I think that by listening to what they do in their life, we could understand what’s wrong with the patient and we could suggest the patient like what they should do to improve the healthiness of their body and mind.

ReplyDelete1. According to Daniel Pink stories exist where high concept and high touch intersect.
2. One company that does this is NASA, another is Xerox and another is Storyquest. I do believe that this is a worthwhile process because if they can’t create stories then they are creative and can talk their way into and out of anything.
3. They are being used to tell the doctors what has taken place before they arrived in the hospital whether it is for an emergency or a checkup.

ReplyDelete1. According to the author stories exist where high concept and high touch intersect.
2. Three companies that use the process of storytelling is the NASA, Xerox and story quest. I think that it depends on the person and the type of work that they are doing. With that said it can be worthwhile because it helps people map things out before they do it.
3. Doctors use this process to tell what has happen to the person before they got to the hospital. Dr. Charon uses this process because the patient tells the story of what has happened and the doctors tell their own story.

1.)
According to Daniel Pink a story is just as integral to the human experience as design. A story is when high concept and high touch intersect.
2.)
a.)Three companies are NASA, Xerox and StoryQuest.
b.)I think it is a worthwhile process because it helps you look at pictures and understand a story line and trying to relate that to a job force is good. Also it can help you understand the work ethic and how to break things down.
3.)
It helps because med students are no longer asking questions such as “where does it hurt” or “where is the pain” the questions are more along the lines of “tell me about your life”. They also learn to listen more empathically to the stories their patients tell and read those stories with greater acuity.

ReplyDeleteStory exists where high concept and high touch intersect.
Three companies that use this process is NASA, 3M, and banks.
Yes I do think this is a worthwhile process because if you are able to talk to a person and tell them a story to get them to do what you want then it is defiantly worth it.
Stories are being used in medicine by doctors telling clients stories before selling them the drugs.
Charon uses concepts like teaching her students how to tell stories and also listen another concept that Dr. Charon used was for student to carry two charts when they worked with clients.

1. According to the author the story exsits where high concept and high touch intersect. He says that because its sharpens our understanding of one thing b showing it in the context of something else.
2. (A) NASA, And Xerox, Story Quest. (B) I do not believe it is a worthwhile process because I think that it’s not important to tell stories.
3. One example is in hospitals when people are in the wating room and the doctors come out they began telling stories and the doctor interupts them. Also when a doctor will tell the patient whats wrong most likely the doctor will tell a story of someone that had the same thing happen to them. So that the patient will understand the problem better.
1. He thinks the story is in your mind.
ReplyDelete2. A. Advertising, counseling, and consulting.
B. Yes because it makes people think harder and deeper.
3. They tell you a story and it makes you think the medicine must be really good.
a. She tells stories to patients in the hospital, and she also repeated stories.]

1) According to Daniel Pink story exists where high concept and high touch intersect because once we see something in a different context then we understand it better.
ReplyDelete2) 3M, NASA and Xerox. I think it's worthwhile because everything that people learn when they're doing something isn't documented so the only way others can learn of it is from stories.
3) Stories are being used as a easier way to interact with patients. One example is the way doctors tell their patients stories about other people who have had that problem and it could help them cope with it. Another way is how instead of asking the standard questions of "Tell me where it hurts," now it's "Tell me about you're life."

1. In the story the author says that stories come from our experience, knowledge and our thinking is organized as stories. Also he said that it is an integral to the human experience as design.
ReplyDelete2. The three companies are NASA, Xerox, StoryQuest. I think so because it will give the employee a better understanding of the task that the person has to do. Also they can visualize what they have to do and instead of them using just a regular manual.
3. She says that being a good doctor requires narrative competence. Also she said that the competence that human beings use to absorb, interpret, and respond to stories.

1.According to the author stories exist in concept and high touch intersect.
2.A. Three companies that rely on storytelling are 3M, NASA, and Xerox.
b. Yes, I think the process is worthwhile because it gives the workers an opportunity to interact and connect more with their customers. If they remember stories then it can be useful in the long run, it could also help memory. The employees can and will be more successful at their jobs if they can remember a story that relates to their position, that would make it easier for them to get the job done.
3. It says in the chapter that illness unfolds as a narrative except in the medical school curriculum or the consciousness of students and teachers. Stories are being used in medicine to cure patients. Doctors listen to their patients and vice versa, they patient feels at ease knowing that the doctor is listening to them. Studies showed before that doctors interrupted the patients at about 21 seconds into their stories.
A. Dr. Charon uses the concept of stories to improve the health of patients by telling them stories about their illness so that they understand it and they won’t be in so much distress. She makes her students keep a parallel chart, students write narratives about their patients and a chronicle of emotions. That gives them a better understanding of the patient and their feelings, with that information they can help the patient deal with their sickness.

ReplyDelete1.It exists where ever high concept and high touch intersect.
2a. Companies like NASA, Xerox, and World Bank use storytelling to train the employees.
b. Well depending on the company it could be worthwhile because they need to understand where the customer is coming from. Or if you work in a medical field it’s very important to understand the patient because you can diagnose the patient more accurately.
3. The doctors write a narrative story on the patients history so the patient and the doctor can have a better relationship. The patient also reveals their story to the doctor.

ReplyDelete1. Stories exist in our memory from reading. They exist in our heads.
2. Xerox, NASA, and StoryQuest. I think it’s not worth while because it’s too much work. You shouldn’t have to teach someone that because they should already know how to.
3. New drugs and medical devices are saving many lives and improving many more. Powerful machines, like the MRI that took pictures of my brain, are letting us glimpse our body’s inner workings.
