Business Storytelling for Dummies

Business Storytelling for DummiesToo many business people are too business-like. As a result what they say and what they write doesn’t really engage. Stories are central to humans.

A child’s mind is programmed from birth for stories. So is it any wonder we love stories?

You will discover how to use stories to motivate your team. Plus you will find out how to get more sales using stories. This book will transform your business communications.
