Storyworthy: Engage, Teach, Persuade, And Change Your Life Through The Power Of Storytelling (PDF)
by Matthew Dicks Dan KennedyWhether we realise it or not, we are always telling stories. On a first date or job interview, in a sales presentation or therapy appointment, with family or friends, we are constantly narrating events and interpreting emotions and actions. In so doing, we make choices about what to emphasize and what to leave out. We frame and explain in order to amuse, rationalize, or just plain vent. The author, acclaimed for his storytelling on stages, the radio, and in novels including Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend, is also an award-winning teacher. His wonderfully straightforward and engaging tips and techniques for constructing, telling, and polishing any story show that anyone can learn to be an appealing storyteller; that everyone has something story worthy to express; and, perhaps most importantly, that the act of creating and telling a tale is a powerful way of understanding and enhancing one's own life.

Storytelling With Data: Gaining Insights, Developing Strategy and taking Corporate Communications to a new level
by Hans-Wilhelm EckertThis book shows the role data plays in communication and marketing and how it can be used as an important source for storytelling. Because data, as a raw material of the digital age, inspires corporate strategy. Provided it is collected, interpreted and processed properly, it provides new and sometimes surprising insights into contexts and offers the opportunity to develop exciting stories from it. Stories that also create relevance with regard to corporate goals, spark dialogues and make communication effective. The author explains in an easy-to-understand way how data-based communication strategies can be turned into gripping stories. He also provides useful tools and shows why data can lie, how important its visual processing is, where its use meets ethical limits and why data protection is also a business opportunity. Using practical examples, the book offers marketing and communication experts - but also interested managers from other disciplines - numerous inspirations and new perspectives.

Storytelling Organizational Practices: Managing in the quantum age
by David M. BojeOnce upon a time the practice of storytelling was about collecting interesting stories about the past, and converting them into soundbite pitches. Now it is more about foretelling the ways the future is approaching the present, prompting a re-storying of the past. Storytelling has progressed and is about a diversity of voices, not just one teller of one past; it is how a group or organization of people negotiates the telling of history and the telling of what future is arriving in the present. With the changes in storytelling practices and theory there is a growing need to look at new and different methodologies. Within this exciting new book, David M. Boje develops new ways to ask questions in interviews and make observations of practice that are about storytelling the future. This, after all, is where management practice concentrates its storytelling, while much of the theory and method work is all about how the past might recur in the future. Storytelling Organizational Practices takes the reader on a journey: from looking at narratives of past experience through looking at living stories of emergence in the present to looking at how the future is arriving in ways that prompts a re-storying of the past.

Storytelling mit Daten: Erkenntnisse gewinnen, Strategie entwickeln und Unternehmenskommunikation auf ein neues Level heben
by Hans-Wilhelm EckertDieses Buch zeigt, welche Rolle Daten für Kommunikation und Marketing spielen und wie sie als wichtige Quelle für das Storytelling genutzt werden können. Denn Daten beflügeln als Rohstoff des digitalen Zeitalters die Unternehmensstrategie. Sie ermöglichen – sofern sauber gesammelt, interpretiert und aufbereitet – neue und mitunter überraschende Einblicke in Zusammenhänge und bieten die Chance, daraus spannende Geschichten zu entwickeln. Geschichten, die auch im Hinblick auf Unternehmensziele Relevanz schaffen, Dialoge entfachen und die Kommunikation wirksam machen. Der Autor erklärt auf leicht verständliche Art und Weise, wie sich datenbasierte Kommunikationsstrategien in packende Storys verwandeln lassen. Zudem liefert er nützliche Tools und zeigt auf, warum Daten lügen können, wie wichtig ihre optische Aufbereitung ist, wo ihr Einsatz an ethische Grenzen stößt und warum Datenschutz auch eine unternehmerische Chance ist. Anhand von praktischen Beispielen bietet das Buch Marketing- und Kommunikationsexperten – aber auch interessierten Managern aus anderen Disziplinen – zahlreiche Inspirationen und neue Perspektiven.
