Leadership Lessons from Amazon's #1 New Release "Story Business."

Gavin McMahon has distilled nearly 25 years of teaching leaders how to be better storytellers into a book.

When I joined fassforward after 20 years on Wall St, I thought storytelling was what we did with our children at bedtime. I questioned why we were focused on it.

Gavin helped me realize that leadership and storytelling are 2 sides of the same coin, and that you cannot be a effective leader without effective storytelling.

Here are 3 of the many leadership lessons from "Story Business": 
 
1️⃣ Tell the Truth (Beautifully)

Leadership storytelling starts with “truthtelling, not fabletelling.”

People don’t need a fairy tale (as per my old misconception), they need clarity they can act on. A leader’s job is to frame reality in a way people can understand, believe, and rally behind. "Speak to their listening."

2️⃣  Question the Future

Leaders don’t predict, they provoke. A good question pulls your colleagues forward, makes them imagine what could be, and creates permission for change.

And when you question the future, you’re not forecasting, you’re widening the path ahead so people can see new possibilities and choose to step into them.

3️⃣ Connect People and Dots

Connecting people and dots is the quiet superpower of successful leaders.

Your team carries fragments of the story; you weave them into shared context. When people see where they fit, they move with purpose.
