Learning the languages by means of theatre. 

Welcome to the More than English Podcast! I'm your host Stephen. I'm from the UK and I have been teaching English lessons online since 2016. The purpose of the More than English podcast is not to chat about frivolous topics but rather, to discuss existential ideas and concepts that can literally change the way you see the world, and act in it, in areas such as philosophy, culture, business, tech, politics, health psychology, history, all my favourite topics! But using English that is more accessible to English learners than regular native English podcasts. Not by using basic vocabulary, but instead by speaking clearly, and highlighting advanced-level vocabulary that you can learn in every episode.

The Power of Storytelling in Leading Change emphasizes the role of storytelling in driving organizational change. Leaders often face the need for significant shifts within their organizations, from cultural to product-related changes. To unite their teams behind a new direction, they must craft a clear, compelling narrative.

Storytelling is a potent tool for inspiring action and connecting with people on a deeper level. It helps articulate the ‘why’ and ‘what’ of change, making the abstract tangible and the future vivid.

The article presents a four-step approach to effective storytelling in leadership:

Deep Understanding, Simple Description: Leaders must deeply understand the change to communicate it simply. John Legere’s transformation of T-Mobile into an “un-carrier” is a prime example of conveying a complex change with a single, powerful word.
Honoring the Past: Leaders should acknowledge the organization’s strengths and history, showing respect for the past while guiding towards the future. This builds trust and eases the transition for those resistant to change.
Articulate a Persuasive Mandate for Change: Leaders need to present a clear vision that motivates and aligns with the organization’s values, addressing both the positive and negative aspects of the past.
Lay Out a Rigorous and Optimistic Path Forward: The narrative should be action-oriented, providing a clear roadmap for change while maintaining an optimistic outlook.
In summary, leaders must master storytelling to effectively lead change, balancing respect for the past with a clear vision for the future. By doing so, they can capture the hearts and minds of their employees, fostering a culture of optimism and honesty.
