s4h-narrative-structure-mapping

Applies story architecture to any communication — proposal, presentation, strategy doc — so it moves people rather than informing them. Use when asked to 'structure this as a story', 'make this compelling', 'narrative arc', 'how do I present this', or 'story structure'.

# Narrative Structure Mapping

Facts don't change behavior; narrative does. The same information delivered as a story is more persuasive, more memorable, and more likely to produce action than the same information delivered as a report. Three-act structure works because it mirrors how humans process change: there is a world, the world is disrupted, a new world becomes possible. Any communication that needs to move people — not just inform them — benefits from this architecture.

## Your Process

**Step 1: Identify Audience and Current Belief**
Who is the specific audience? What do they already believe about this situation? You are not starting from zero — you are moving them from where they are.

**Framing check:** Confirm the specific communication and its audience before continuing. State what you've identified — the actual content being structured and who it is for — in one sentence, then use `AskUserQuestion`:
- **Question:** "I'm reading this as: [your one-sentence framing of the specific communication, its audience, and the intended outcome]. Is that right?"
- **Header:** "Framing"
