Stories are one of the most fundamental aspects of the human experience. They seize our attention, help us make meaning, allow us to better understand ourselves (and others), and offer new perspectives on the world. But how do you make a story do all that? As a New York Times best-selling..
As a New York Times best-selling author and award-winning host of NPR’s All Things Considered, Ari Shapiro knows the power of storytelling better than most. He’s covered wars in Iraq, Ukraine, and Israel. He’s sat down with celebrated authors and struggling families. He’s reported from migrant caravans on the ground and press pools aboard Air Force One.

One of the hardest things to do as a leader is to build rapport with subordinates. You can be competent, kind, and respected, but your elevated status as a leader can still make candid, two-way dialogue challenging. If you want to become a little more approachable, relatable, and human, the single best way to do that is to learn how to be a good storyteller. In this course, Todd Dewett explains how a good story has the capacity to educate and inform an audience while building a stronger bond with you as a person. Todd starts by helping you embrace the idea of using storytelling as a part of your communication toolkit. He then guides you in how to pick a good event from your past, how to shape that event into a clear learning topic, and then how to structure it into an engaging short story. Then, learn how to properly practice your story and select a meeting or event to use that story.

Time and Myth A Meditation on Storytelling as an Exploration of Life and Death


Free Download John S. Dunne, "Time and Myth: A Meditation on Storytelling as an Exploration of Life and Death"
English | 1989 | pages: 140 | ISBN: 0268018286, 026806332X | EPUB | 1,8 mb
Based on the Thomas More Lectures John Dunne delivered at Yale University in 1971, Time and Myth analyzes man’s confrontation with the inevitability of death in the cultural, personal, and religious spheres, viewing each as a particular kind of myth shaped by the impact of time. With penetrating simplicity the author poses the timeless dilemma of the human condition and seeks to resolve it through stories of adventures, journeys, and voyages inspired by man’s encounter with death; stories of childhood, youth, manhood, and age; and, finally, stories of God and of man wrestling with God and the unknown.
