An unpopular opinion on storytelling during presentations. Contrary to what many public speaking experts suggest, I firmly believe you shouldn't include a photo when narrating a story. I've even had public speaking coaches tell me to do so. But remember, I'm not a public speaking coach; I'm a storytelling expert. Let me explain why.

Storytelling thrives on co-creation. As you narrate your tale, your audience co-creates by injecting their personal experiences and emotions, thereby resonating more deeply with your message. However, the moment you flash a photo, you shatter this co-creation. I share a personal experience where a speaker's photo abruptly disconnected me from his narrative.

In essence, if you want your audience to genuinely connect, feel the depth of your message, and see themselves in your tale, skip the photos. Embrace the power of co-creation
