Publisher's Summary

Is there a way to send out impactful messages that people remember for days? Is there a way to influence people without pushing data and analysis on them? Is there an effective way to drive change in an organization?

Yes, through stories.

Stories at Work will teach you how to wrap your stories in context and deliver them in a way that grabs your audience's attention. The special tools, techniques, and structures in this book will help you bring the power of stories into your day-to-day business communication. They will enable you to connect, engage, and inspire and ensure that everything you share has a lasting impression on your listeners.

Life changing

I have used the Curse of Knowledge story already in multiple scenarios and realized immediate benefit. The best part is I could use that story not just at work but also with my two kids to drive the message home.

No matter what type of work you do or what level you have reached in your career, this book is for you. It will change the way you approach public speaking, presentations, stakeholder management, team building, change management or any other challenge you might be facing.

Highly recommended.

Brilliant book on an unsung skill

This book gives us great insights on human psychology and how stories influence them. Story telling in one of the key skills in the business world, especially for people in Marketing and sales. The language is simple and the story is also coherent with respect to the message the author is trying to communicate.

Good book, More on story structures needed.

This is a good book that guided me with good examples of when and how to use stories in business environments.

The author touches upon different story structures briefly, however, more detailed explanations and examples on the story structures would have been useful.

If you are exploring the use of stories in business communications, you'd be better off reading/listening to this book.

Every word provides value

There has been always a struggle to find best way to communicate message across. One of the my colleague suggested to read this book two weeks ago. I started listening to the book "Stories at Work" narrated by Indranil. The narration strikes a chord with very first word. Every word of the books seems very pertinent to the situation and easy to follow.
I would suggest it to be a must to have in your library and read it.
