日本では10月のことを「神無月（かんなづき）」と呼ぶことがあります。神社の数は（8万8千）はコンビニの数（5万5千）より多いのに、そこから神様はどこにお出かけなんでしょうか。実は島根（しまね）県に出雲大社（いずもたいしゃ）という、大きな神社があって、そちらでサミットのご予定なんです。あちらでは、超過密な「神在月（かみありづき）」、ホストの神様は大忙しです。ちなみに、この神様オオクニヌシは、ヘンリー8世 HenryVIII　みたいです。なぜでしょう？　答えは、聞いたらわかるよ。

第12話　まもなく神様サミット（島根）

『オルゴールワールド』　にしのあきひろ著

どれ、奇跡の話をしようじゃないか。

カンパネラ爺がこしらえているラッパはな、えれぇ昔に工場の屋根をつきぬけて、
いまじゃ空中帝国から空にむかってビヨーンと とびだしとるが、それでもまだまだ完成しとらんのだと。
カンパネラ爺は、そのラッパのさきっちょで、もう５０年も工具をふりまわしとる。
そげな場所で足をすべらせたら、５０００メートル下の『森』へとまっさかさま。ひとたまりもない。
ところがどっこい、まわりの心配なんのその、きょうもラッパの大工事。
どんな言葉をかけようと、カンパネラ爺の返事はいつも決まって こうじゃった。
「ちょっくら奇跡に用がある」

Shall we talk about a MIRACLE?

Old Man Campanella is building a bugle. A long long time ago, it pierced right through the roof of
his factory, and now it stretches out far from the EMPIRE IN THE SKY, poking up way into the air.
Even so, it's still a long way from completion.
Old Man Campanella has been wielding his tools on the tip of his bugle for 50 years now.
If he was to slip, he would fall into the FOREST 5000 meters below and land smack on his head.
He wouldn't stand a chance. But, no matter how much people worry about him, he's at it again today, building away on his bugle.
And, no matter who says what, Old Man Campanella always gives the same response.
''There's a miracle waiting for me''

To be a successful leader, marketer, salesperson, or even job candidate, you need to be able to tell business stories well. Leaders tell stories to inspire their employees and to help them see what’s possible or to teach them something. They also tell investors, donors, board members, and others impact stories that reassure them their time and money are working. 

Business stories hold so much potential that I think they should be told every single day in workplace interactions! 

Even if you don’t identify as a storyteller, you will be prompted to tell stories at times in your career. But most people are not natural-born storytellers. It’s a skill that takes training and practice. 

Tune into the latest Express to Impress Podcast episode to business storytelling techniques. With a little practice, you’ll be a great storyteller in no time!
