The Cognitive Crucible is a forum that presents different perspectives and emerging thought leadership related to the information environment. The opinions expressed by guests are their own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of or endorsement by the Information Professionals Association. During this episode, US Air Force MAJ Chris Mesnard discusses his Master's thesis from the US Army Command and General Staff College entitled: Describing and Forecasting Relevant-Actor Attitudes, Actions, and Behaviors via Narrative-Based Decision-Making. Planners at all echelons seek to transition the present state into one more desired and advantageous. This study explores the topic of transitioning to desired future states through the use of measurable story elements which can influence relevant actor attitudes, actions, and behaviors. Story is a well-researched cognitive process with unique elements enabling planners to use story elements as a framework in operational planning and assessment. Additionally, during the discovery phase of this study, the research identified a doctrinal gap in how joint planning doctrine describes the term narrative. The key takeaway from this study is that the mind thematically aligns stories and their elements into narratives, demonstrating a cognitive process that assists in an individual's understanding of reality and the possible decisions which logically fit into that reality. Using the understanding of stories and their elements, planners can better describe and forecast narrative-based decision-making exhibited through relevant actor attitudes, actions, and behaviors.

It can conjure up memories of having a story read to you at bedtime. This episode provides legit cognitive facts that back up the way the human mind is hardwired to respond to and retain information from stories. In their first installment of the Water Nerds Guide, the H2duO focus on the science behind storytelling. They’re going to discuss why we need to reframe the way we handle communication in the water industry, the science behind storytelling, and some things to keep in mind as your craft your own stories.

Kendall Haven calls us “Homo-Narratus”. Storytelling has become an evolutionary tool in our survival and why we sit at the top of the food chain. This is why story is so powerful. It's 100,000 years of hard wiring in every human's body. Now, what Kendall says, is that humans have this thing called a make sense mandate. We must make sense of things in order to do them. In order to take a risk, to buy a product, to try a new farming technique. We must make sense of it first. If a story does not carry proper information into the listener's brain, the listener will create their own story to make sense of it before processing it to the frontal cortex for formal decision. Now here's what you need to know because your customers, your clients, your donors, your children, when they have to make their own story up because there's no story accompanying the information you're giving them in that 80,000 page PowerPoint deck, two things are constant. One, the listener's story is often inaccurate and two, the listener's story is often negative about you or whatever external input is coming in. So not only does the brain require story to make sense of things before it renders a decision on whether to buy from you, invest in you, follow you, it will make up its own story if you don't provide one.

The story of climate change has proven itself to be an elusive, frustrating, and slippery story to grasp, share, and make comprehensible to a skeptical and scientifically unsophisticated population. But according to master storyteller Kendall Haven, if we can change the story in people’s minds, we can influence their beliefs and behavior. The process of creating a story of climate change for any particular audience is far from easy and straightforward. Many discuss this in scientific terms but miss the imperative of story terms — those terms, concepts, and elements critical to the successful telling and receiving of the story. This session will present new research into the story elements and mechanisms that most effectively create powerful story influence. Kendall Haven
