The first is by using conventional rhetoric, which is what most executives are trained in. That s not good enough, because people are not inspired to act by reason alone. The other way to persuade people and ultimately a much more powerful way is by uniting an idea with an emotion. The best way to do that is by telling a compelling story. Other presentation skills books tell you to use stories, but they don t tell you how. Businesspeople who attempt to use stories recognize that there is an art and science to telling them, but they don t know where to go for instruction. I wrote this book for business professionals, salespeople, entrepreneurs and executives who want to use stories in a business environment. This book walks you stepbystep, through the process of choosing and crafting a story that makes a point, illuminates an idea or sells a product. This is strategic storytelling for business using a systematic method. It is pragmatic theatricality to achieve a desired result.
