"This book contains 50 stories, all of which have been specifically chosen to help you deal with the difficult and complex process of change. Some of the stories have been lent by other authors, some are my own creation, some were developed by participants during storytelling workshops and some have been re-told or adapted to address a particular aspect of change. As with my previous books, there is a ‘moral’ attached to the bottom of each story. In some situations you may feel it appropriate to disclose the suggested moral to your listener(s), but in others it may be more appropriate to allow them to reflect and formulate their own understanding. There is a danger of being over-prescriptive when sharing the meanings of stories; they always contain more than one meaning, as I have found on many occasions – and there’s usually at least one that you never thought of! There is also guidance in this book on how you might use the stories to promote reflection and meaningful discussion." (Publisher description)
