The Long and The Short Of It

392. Breakfast

This week, Pete and Jen noodle on the importance of storytelling, starting with the story of what they each had for breakfast (or how they might approach a charcuterie board).

Specifically, in this episode Jen and Pete talk about:

  • Why is storytelling within the workplace and as leaders so important?
  • How might you prompt someone else to tell you a story, and how might that help you learn about them?
  • How do heroes, highlights, and hardships show up in the stories we tell and the ways we behave?
