Shradha Sharma is the Founder & CEO of YourStory. She started YourStory in 2008 to tell stories of entrepreneurs - something that mainstream media was not ready to do in 2008.

She was featured on Fortune’s list of the best 40 under 40 entrepreneurs in India for three years in a row. In 2018, she won the Forbes Power Trailblazers award and was twice featured on LinkedIn’s list of powerful influencers, along with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and actor Priyanka Chopra.

The only thing you will become a good storyteller is by making mistakes and making a joke of yourself.

People laugh at good jokes, but you have to come and stand on the stage.

Observe any good storyteller, look at Sandeep, you know, it doesn't come overnight.

Second, I think if you want to be a good storyteller, it is very important to be a good human being.

Because you need to understand human beings.

For me, what I like is not the story you tell.

What I like is the story you are not telling me.

Log ko pehchanana shuru karoge to story teller apne aap.

Practice karo, kharo stage pe, apna mazaad hudao.


Speaker 0: The only thing you will become a good storyteller is by making mistakes and making a joke of yourself. People laugh at good jokes, but you have to come and stand on the stage. It is again an everyday habit. Observe any good storyteller, look at Sandeep, you know, it doesn't come overnight. He comes and stands every day.

Second, I think if you want to be a good storyteller, it is very important to be a good human being. Because you need to understand human beings. For me, what I like is not the story you tell. What I like is the story you are not telling me. To understand that.

Log ko pehchanana shuru karoge to story teller apne aap. Practice karo, kharo stage pe, apna mazaad hudao. Log tali nahi bajayenge to theek hai. But you'll get the game.
