Opening Up: Creative Storying at Work

ByAndrew Rixon

Lost in the woods? Sometimes we become so focused on getting results that we forget why we are working, or who we are. Problems become dangerous thickets with no clear way through, and we spend too much time staring at the thorns. Storying reveals new patterns and ways of interacting, and fairy stories in particular draw on deeply understood, multifaceted symbols that can be used to simplify and illuminate seemingly insurmountable problems. This book shows how we can use our storytelling skills to rethink problems, putting them in a mythical setting that allows us to distance ourselves and use the space to open up and find innovative solutions and simple answers. ‘Happily ever after’ is just the beginning.
