Storytelling is the most powerful way

to deliver a memorable

message and the most effective way to

transmit meaning, tacit knowledge and collective wisdom.

“There have been great societies that did not use the wheel, but there have been no societies that did not tell stories.”

– Ursula K. Le Guin

leverage the value of storytelling in the workplace, especially the sharing of their own

memorable moments of truth on-the-job – stories that have, embedded within them,

great meaning, insight, and knowledgewith the power to spark insight and action in others.

WISDOM @ WORK

TIME TO TELL A NEW STORY“Over the years I have

become convinced that we learn best – and change – from hearing stories that strike a chord within us. Those in leadership positions who fail to grasp or use the power of stories risk failure for themselves and their companies.” – John Kotter
