Recommendation
Any leader will benefit from mastering sincere storytelling that is designed to achieve specific organizational objectives. By using some storytelling techniques himself, in the form of a fable about business-owning squirrels, author Stephen Denning teaches you how to tap into your natural storytelling ability, so you can focus your listeners’ goals and vision. He explains what types of stories elicit a variety of desired outcomes. He also teaches you how to tell your story and explains the reaction you can expect to generate if the story is apt. Storytelling lets leaders engage people, helps them relate to the company’s goals and creates a forward-looking organization. With Denning’s guidance, you can use your ’once upon a time’ skills to build camaraderie, focus and happy endings. getAbstract.com recommends this book to all leaders, since storytelling is destined to become an unexpectedly critical skill.
