Stories Trainers Tell: 55 Ready-to-Use Stories to Make Training Stick

Stories Trainers Tell: 55 Ready-to-Use Stories to Make Training Stick
Stories Trainers Tell: 55 Ready-to-Use Stories to Make Training Stick

Story-powered training that actually sticks

If you teach, train, or lead workshops, this book feels like a practical secret weapon. It gives you ready-made stories that turn dry ideas like leadership or teamwork into something people actually remember and talk about afterward. Readers would probably love how usable it is right away, especially with the debrief questions and follow-up activities that make each story easy to bring into the room.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Make challenging concepts more memorable, even unforgettable! "Stories Trainers Tell is full of fun, entertaining, and useful stories that help bring any training alive. Use it and watch people smile and learn!" — Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager and Whale Done! (TM). Telling stories is a powerful way to make a point, especially when the stories are compelling, well-constructed, and poignant. This book captures thought-provoking stories contributed by trainers, nationally known speakers, consultants, business leaders, educators, and professional storytellers that help make challenging ideas and abstract concepts stick. The stories are organized around major organizational development and training themes, such as leadership, diversity, teamwork, performance and coaching, and customer service. Accompanying each story are tips, debriefing questions, key points, and a follow-up activity to maximize its impact and learning potential. Includes a free CD-ROM with narrative readings of each story! Contributors include: Merrill Anderson, Jean Barbazette, Joe Barnes, Paula Bartholome, Chip Bell, Geoff Bellman, William Austin Boone, Sharon L. Bowman, Karen D. L. Byrson, Chris Clarke-Epstein, Hortencia Delgadillo, Larry English, Marcy Fisher, Suzann Gardner, Joan Gillman, Steve Hanamura, Lunell Haught, Sandra Hoskins, Katherine M.
