Have you ever noticed leaders spend a lot of time talking about talent, only to make the same mistakes over and over again? Few things in business are as costly and disruptive as unexpected talent departures.

Business can be complex. Leadership can be complex. Certainly our culture and society is complex. This article gets us thinking -- and includes some fabulous advice -- about how storytelling can help us wade through complex issues, make better decisions, and find a path forward. Today. Right now. As 2013 approaches, let's continue to use stories well, to help grow and excel, instead of to diminish others. There are wise and uplifting words in this piece and steps to take. Let's go this route. Happy New Year everyone. This review was written by Karen Dietz for her curated content on business storytelling atwww.scoop.it/t/just-story-it Delete the scoop?

In the world of website development, they say content is king. In the world of training/education, you can provide truckloads of content, but it's really context that rules.
I like this article! Hey -- in business we are constantly having to educate people about our product or service. So here's an idea for you -- use scenarios in your presentations to get everyone involved in on-the-spot learning. Providing someone an experience of your company, product, service builds instant connection, rapport, and transfers knowledge.
The author has a terrific diagram in the article about creating scenarios along with lots of great links.
Now if you are a trainer, scenarios are not new to you, but I bet you will find the info and links shared here a valuable resource!
Thanks @IdeaLearningGroup for sending me this link :)
