Author Description

Transform dull meetings into dynamic missions with the power of story. Organizational Storytelling: A Leadership Connection is not another data-heavy leadership manual. Dr. Linda Ellington offers something more impactful. A blueprint for using organizational storytelling to energize culture, align teams, and lead with clarity. If you've ever felt stuck in a sea of PowerPoint slides and corporate jargon, this book invites you to step into a different role: the storyteller who commands attention, builds trust, and sparks real transformation. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, communication strategy, and decades of executive leadership, this book demonstrates how storytelling in business becomes your competitive advantage. Whether you're navigating change management, shaping corporate culture, or leading cross-functional teams, storytelling becomes your most effective leadership tool. You'll learn how to: Use leadership communication to connect across silos. Apply story structure to drive employee engagement. Tap into the psychology of narrative for influence and empathy. Replace politics and monotony with meaning and connection. As Dr. Ellington says: "If you tell stories in your organization, people will look at you oddly. Good. That's the moment you've won." This is your guide to building an organization that is not only creative, resilient, and innovative, but a place where laughter and leadership co-exist. And yes, where the fun line intersects with the bottom line. Be bold. Be human. Be the storyteller.
