Shawn Callahan is the author of the award-winning *Putting Stories to Work* and the Founder at Anecdote, the world’s largest business storytelling enterprise. And boy do we have some tips and tools for you to help you change organisational culture, grow your business and sell your ideas through stories.

Our chat is sprinkled with gold nuggets that you’ll want a notepad and pen by your side as you listen. We discuss things like…

• Why your stories don’t need a hero,

• How better listening leads to more impactful stories,

• It’s the small moment in life that have the ability to transform lives and situations and,

• How to create your own repertoire of stories.

Shawn shares a number of stories (of course he did) on how a tiny story lead to an organisation wide cultural change and how his own daughters story became an anecdote for the positive effects of failure.

M. Shawn Petersen (who I know as Mick) has always been a dreamer of enormous proportions with gobs of imagination; it wasn’t until he re-discovered writing (after been told as a kid that his writing wasn’t any good) that those imaginings were given a life of their own.

In this episode Mick shares his story of being stranded in Mexico and how he met Stella, an 11 year old girl, in a dream and how Stella became the main character in his best selling book ‘Stella and the Time Keepers”.

Mick shares how his journey of becoming intentional instead of buying into chaos allowed him to be of service to his vision through action and awareness.

If you have an audacious goal, this is the episode for you! Mick shares what he does daily, and how those daily actions lead to serendipitous events that keep turning up as he continually moves towards his vision.

His revised version of 'Stella and the Timekeepers' is due to be realised in 2019! http://mickpetersen.com/
