"Perkins storytelling shows that it is not only the province of children and can be used to provide useful metaphors for the workplace."
People Management
Description: The link between storytelling and the concept of change and transition is as old as some of the stories themselves: the frog turns into the handsome prince, the ugly duckling into a swan and Cinderella into a princess. However, storytelling is not just the province of children; it is a powerful and compelling resource that can be used to reframe and resize problems and provide useful metaphors for the boardroom, office and individual.
Showing you how and when to use stories to maximum effect, Tales for Change will immediately help managers, trainers, educators and coaches reinforce key messages or stimulate fresh thinking. The book includes 50 tried and tested tales that can be used in a change management context. These tales can be used to communicate ideas, aid memorable learning and encourage brainstorming sessions, as well as help those involved cope with the stress of change, enhance emotional intelligence and increase creativity. Complete with "trigger questions" to encourage reflective thinking and productive discussion, this innovative book is sure to change the way that others learn and ISBN 9780749461003
