Nearly everyone responds to a good yarn, and that's precisely the point
behind The Story Factor by Annette Simmons. A "collaborative behavior"
consultant to public and private organizations, Simmons argues that
storytelling may just be the best management tool available to modern
business leaders because it exerts influence in ways that other
techniques cannot. And she doesn't suggest that stories be exclusively
reserved for formal presentations, either; on the contrary, Simmons
shows how they can be used effectively in small group settings and even
one-on-one situations.
Annette started with a business degree from Louisiana State
University in 1983, spent ten years in Australia in international
business, attained a M.Ed. from NC State in 1994 and started Group
Process Consulting in 1996. Annette is surprisingly honest, ferrets out
hidden opportunities, joyfully takes risks and tells a good story.
Follow her lead and you'll likely never relate to any individual or group in the same way again. --Howard Rothman --
