Story Telling for Leaders

Background

Develop your team's capacity to overcome resistance to change and drive employee engagement and buy-in by harnessing the powerful tool of storytelling. Beliefs or mindsets can limit our thinking, forcing us to see the world a certain way. They are often what impede a leader’s efforts to get people to think and act differently. Stories invite people to suspend their beliefs — about the world, about what is possible, and about themselves. Here is where the magic happens. It’s when a person suspends his or her beliefs that real change can occur.

About the Course

Leaders who tell stories also communicate a compelling vision around desired beliefs, behaviors and results. If they want to see a behavior demonstrated more often, sharing stories about people who exhibit the desired behavior provides a clear example. It also provides evidence that these behaviors are already taking place, encouraging others to adopt the new behaviors as well.
