Murray Nossel

Murray Nossel takes an unexpected approach to storytelling. The beginning of the book focuses on honing individual and collective listening skills. Be patient. This all makes sense if you want to be a better storyteller. This book addresses more than storytelling, though. The lessons within this volume can transform how individuals and teams communicate. Nossel explains how people can move beyond judgments and biases to connect at a deep level of emotion and meaning. The methodology Nossel describes is not complex, but it does take practice. It requires a different way of perceiving and interacting with oneself and others. Plenty examples are provided illustrating the effectiveness and power of the process outlined. Exercises are provided for honing necessary skills. Nossel leads the reader through the process of developing an impactful story and explains how to present that story with impact. This is a worthwhile read for anyone who wants to become a more powerful communicator in any arena of life.… (mehr)
