DESCRIPTION
STORY WORKSHOP COMMON STORY FOR BALTIC SEA REGION TOURISM 14TH OF SEPTEMBER 2011, FINLAND ”Common Future for Baltic Tourism II” European Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region: Priority Area Tourism Flagship project 12,7: Attract tourists to rural areas esp. coastal ones In the end of the first day the Story Designer, Anne Kalliomäki from Tarinakone/StoryEngine told how to take advantage of storytelling creating common story identity for BSR Tourism. Story-based service design uses narrative structures to tie together the various elements of the service. A story-based service concept gives customers a memorable service experience that makes your service stand out from the crowd. Stories create emotions, and emotions yield results. Before starting to design a company’s customer experience, it’s essential to establish the company’s story identity. One of the main aspects of the story identity is company´s core story. The story identity is used as the foundation for all company´s story design. In the Story Workshop it was used the StoryTree method developed by Anne Kalliomäki of Tarinakone to create stories for BSR tourism. StoryTree is a simple approach to discovering the essence and the core of a company - or a geographical region. In the StoryTree method, three mind-maps are created into a shape of a tree. The mind-map in the roots of the tree is the diamond: the core message of the area. The trunk of the tree depicts the services and special places of the area. The branches of the tree carry the story elements, details, themes, characters, historical frames etc. The StoryTree is a process and a tool for brainstorming and collecting ideas together. The method helps to define the unique elements of the experience is offered to tourists exploring certain area. What is the story line that will merge the customer experience into one common theme? A theme, which will grow into a full story and keep sprouting new shoots in the all tourism services that are provided. The Baltic sea, its nature and history are like a canvas, onto which the common story can be painted. We are its painters, said Anne Kalliomaki from Tarinakone/StoryEngine. Tarinakone (2008) helps companies and organization on the tourism industry to find effective ways to use stories and dramaturgy in producing better and more memorable experiences. Tarinakone specialises in using story design to commercialize experiences. More info: www.tarinakone.fi/en
