Fully updated, this edition reveals how to use storytelling to: capture attention; motivate listeners; gain trust; strengthen your argument; sway decisions; demonstrate authenticity and encourage transparency; spark innovation; and manage uncertainty. It is complete with examples, a proven storytelling process and techniques, innovative applications, and a new appendix on teaching storytelling. --
