"Seems to me that in this modern world the simple art of
storytelling is undervalued as a teaching technique for use by managers
in business. Does this perhaps "niche" area interest you?"
Ken, I'm very interested in your suggested topic. I use stories,
anecdotes, metaphors whenever I can in my consulting work - I find them
powerful and people relate to them very easily. I've recently started
reading up about NLP and one of my books talks about metaphors being "the
key the unconscious mind", that they're like puzzles that the unconscious
mind tussles with until it finds a solution which makes sense. Which
seemed to explain to me their power.
But I'm leaping ahead here... perhaps you could explain what _you_ mean by
a "story"?
