Stories are a natural part of how we communicate. Yet many of us are

into repeatable practices and essential competencies. The story-based
activities in the second half of the book will give you powerful, easy
to lead, structured, experiential exercises that can be used in a
variety of settings and for lots of different purposes that go beyond
training.
