Story telling is a timeless tradition. This art circumvents cultural barriers, generational gaps and technological outdating and can be more powerful than a simple memo or speech if crafted the right way. Paul Smith makes the case for the power of storytelling when it comes to leadership in his new book, Lead with a Story.
In addition to providing examples of effective stories along leadership themes, including energizing the team and empowering others, Smith lays out the elements of a good story structure so readers can create stories of their own.
