Reflection: Storytelling

Challenge & Selection

Storytelling is the greatest technology that humans have ever created.” — Jon Westenberg.  I work with different mindset with few years variant in their ages, they don’t want to complete  any higher study or taking any technical development courses, it was hard to empower them  for benefit of such development courses since they are thinking no benefit from such courses  and only to do normal day operation work. I thought about multiple way of how to motivate  them, we discuss the success story of colleagues and pioneers who take the challenge and  completed technology development courses and higher education studies years later after  completion.

Application

During our discussion, I was trying to highlight the most common courses needed by the  business, which taken by business leaders, and how such development courses improve  their career path, even if take time to see result of given effort, but still need to take the  challenge in taking development courses.

Insight & Approach

Well, it drawn a vision for teammate, they started looking of such courses meeting their  business need, they explore, plan and set a goal for such unique courses that can give them  better opportunity in the business, and making them up to date for technology changes in our  business need on the same time, they become link and entrepreneur who want to develop,  improve our daily operation job.

I’m happy to motivate my team without enforcing them for such improvement courses, and I  was able to enable them to get advancement in their career. Using Storytelling approach I  succeed to achieve a goal I wasn’t able to achieve it in almost 2 years.
