Security Day
As speaker and illusionist I am often asked on safety days of organizations and companies. I notice that these kinds of safety days often consist of an expert, the management and something fun with content. I can often take care of the latter. The expert speaks, for example, about data security that delivers awareness on or some insights. The management also often gives a speech, and it is usually heard that things are going well and that there is yet better attention should be paid to safety. Sometimes this message is even brought with the pointing finger. The director I last at one safety day saw speak grabbed this completely different On. I have never seen what he accomplished with a team of technicians. What he did seemed quite simple was anyway very effective. He told a story. Well thought out and put in the right tone. He told the story of a young father, the father slept poorly, because a second child had just been born at his home. The baby cried a lot at night and it woke him up. The bad sleep had been going on for months and it eventually cost the young father his concentration. This young father was also an electrician in power pylons. Everyone in the room immediately understood the life-threatening situation outlined. The audience hung on his lips as he continued to speak. He explained how this now unstable electrician and his colleague climbed a high-voltage mast. And also in technical detail how the man almost made a life-threatening short circuit, because he was not paying attention. Fortunately, the colleague saw what almost happened and prevented an accident by addressing his colleague. The young father was shocked, it would have saved a second before he should have left his young family behind. Together they immediately went to the director to discuss the situation. The management and the young father decided together that this man deserved extra parental leave. Then the director indicated to the audience that this situation had really gotten out of hand. He wanted to offer openness to his staff to knock on his door if there is something going on that affects your work. And rather arrive too early than too late! "We don't want accidents so let us take care of ourselves and our colleagues as if we were family." It was tangible that the hall had been hit. Everyone knew which colleague was talking about. It was a true story.
Still, I think it's also possible to touch an audience emotionally if the story is fictional. Of course this depends on the skills of the speaker and how the story is written. I thought it was a beautiful and striking speech that conveyed the message without using the finger. I am sure it has brought this company closer together. The best thing I thought was the one sensitive string managed to hit a room full of hard-looking mechanics, men among themselves. The sense of togetherness is stronger than any merit.
Then I was allowed to do my act where employees in interactive illusion acts also have to work together. This had never gone as well as it did then. Often at the beginning of my presentation I have to do something about the togetherness in the room. That was no longer necessary.
Direct telling or storytelling?
What exactly is the difference? Most directors do not hide their message. They immediately say what you should or should not do. This regularly results in resistance, people prefer to think up how to do it themselves things to do. The director with the story touches one with his story sensitive string and let the employees invent themselves to do it right. The idea then comes from themselves and is therefore many times stronger than they would do it for someone else. They now take care of themselves and colleagues, because they want to do that themselves and not because someone else has to.
