(This is the fourth in a series of eight observations about stories and storytelling in groups, and about helping people tell and work with stories. See the first post for more information about the origin of the “eight things.”)
(And then, in the fourth of the series of eight, this is the third in a nested series of four: telling stories, making stories happen, listening to stories, and herding stories.)
(And then, this post was getting so long that I decided to just go through the dangers in listening to stories, and leave the opportunities for the next post.)
This blog post has been moved to (and revised for) The Working with Stories Miscellany. You can find it in Chapter 9, “PNI Dangers.”
