DOWNLOAD EBOOKStorytelling has come of age in the business world. Today, many of the most successful companies use storytelling as a leadership tool. At Nike, all senior executives are designated "corporate storytellers." 3M banned bullet points years ago and replaced them with a process of writing "strategic narratives." Procter Gamble hired Hollywood directors to teach its executives storytelling techniques. Some forward-thinking business schools have even added storytelling courses to their management curriculum. The reason for this is simple: Stories have the ability to engage an audience the way logic and bullet points alone never could. Whether you are trying to communicate a vision, sell an idea, or inspire commitment, storytelling is a powerful business tool that can mean the difference between mediocre results and phenomenal success. Lead with a Story contains both ready-to-use stories and how-to guidance for readers looking to craft their own. Designed for a wide variety of business challenges, the book shows how narrative can help: * Define culture and values * Engender creativity and innovation * Foster collaboration and build relationships * Provide coaching and feedback * Lead change * And more Whether in a speech or a memo, communicated to one person or a thousand, storytelling is an essential skill for success. Complete with examples from companies like Kellogg's, Merrill-Lynch, Procter Gamble, National Car Rental, Wal-Mart, Pizza Hut, and more, this practical resource gives readers the guidance they need to deliver stories to stunning effect.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is sure an interesting read full of adventure, thrilling suspense and melodrama. Join Adaeze and Oma’s modern-day adventure in the six-part short story series, You Stepped On My Foot, follow Oluchi and Nneka’s suspenseful investigation into mami water events in Tianna, relish the melancholic thrill in the historical fictional dramatization of one of the most popular Igbo folk songs, Ekworo Nwunye Di, learn how to avoid capture by mysterious monsters in Nightfall At Ifite-Oma, among many other interesting short stories that explore Igbo folklore and Igbo history. It should be quickly pointed out that the stories are genuinely inspired by Igbo folklore and true Igbo history. So, this is certainly not yet another Pan Africanist or Afro-Centrist literature, where Africans or Black people generally can do no wrong and have done no wrong since the beginning of time. Expect to read about invasions of African villages by other Black people in pre-colonial times because it did happen, and Igbos had their fair share of these waves of devastating invasions and tyrannical impositions from other Black people. But more importantly, be prepared to absolutely enjoy this book which takes these events and artistically craft short stories that entertain you. You will soon discover that the truth is indeed stranger than fiction.
