Synopsis

Taking the approach developed in Tales for Trainers , where trainers are shown how to use extracts from literature, anecdote and metaphor to reinforce learning, Margaret Parkin now applies this technique to help all managers responsible for coaching staff. Showing how managers can use stories and anecdotes when coaching either individuals or groups, the book comes complete with 50 tales that managers can use immediately. Ranging from Aesop through Stephen Covey to anecdotes the author has written herself, the book shows readers how and when to use stories and provides some proven tales to start them off.
