Wow! What an interesting post. I learned long ago as a probation officer in Texas, I could send someone to prison on the same set of facts depending on the language I used. This is one of the best articles I've ever read on the topic.

These are overviews of each (read the full article for more details and prompts to help you come up with each type of story): 1. Introducing me 2. Conveying values 3. Teaching 4. Jumpstarting action 5. Inspiring
Here's the link to the full article: http://www.internal-monologue.com/2012/07/careful-around-campfire-five-types-of.html ;
These 5 broad categories and the examples shared in each are really good and will build a good foundation for leadership storytelling. According to Paul Smith in his forthcoming book on leadership storytelling "Lead With A Story" (August 20112), there are actually 21 different categories/applications for leaders to know about and use.
But this article brings clarity to the topic and will definitely get you started!
