The power of storytelling
Competitive Advantage: Storytelling Connects Us
Storytelling is a powerful tool and a skill that everyone should master. Each of us has a story that we take into the world every day. Stories are part of our daily lives and allow us to form connections with others. Through our interactions with others, storytelling provides us the opportunity to unpack our understanding of the world and creates a bridge to communicate our values and beliefs. You may have the most inspiring story on the block, but you must walk the talk daily to create inspiration. The story you have about your job and how you show up each day is critical to becoming an exceptional leader.
“Every great leader is a great storyteller.” –Howard Gardner
