Storytelling Course

Introduction

Have you ever thought that some Apple customers did not wait in long queues in front of its stores for hours and days to get a new iPhone? While we don't see such queues in front of stores that sell other great phones from companies like Samsung and Huawei?
‍
Have you ever wondered why we might enjoy watching an entire season of our favorite series on Netflix, but struggle to focus in an hour-long business meeting?
‍
Why are some leaders and officials distinguished and not others the ability to inspire and motivate people to do what they desire?
