Master a storytelling mindset

Most leaders struggle with their own inner critic. The crushing toll of uncertainty, constant change, and barrage of competing priorities unsettles the most ardent optimist. Mastering a storytelling mindset starts with being honest about the stories holding you back, then learning to write new scripts that put you back in control of your beliefs, behaviour and future story.
