Storytelling describes the social and cultural activity of sharing stories, sometimes with improvisation, theatrics or embellishment. Every culture has its own stories or narratives, which are shared as a means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation or instilling moral values. (Wiki)
Stories “fulfill a profound human need to grasp the patterns of living—not merely as an intellectual exercise, but within a very personal, emotional experience.” – Robert McKee
Leaders who tell stories also communicate a compelling vision around desired beliefs, behaviors and results. … In essence, storytelling helps leaders change the way their teams think, which is a critical step in shifting the way employees act.
Let us add storytelling to our leadership, life. Happy storytelling, leading.
Stay safe, stay blessed.
