When a story is told, a fellowship arises between the person telling the story and the person listening. Each listener perceives himself as cocreator of both the images that arise in his mind and the structure of the story. The storyteller on the other hand is influenced by every member of the audience, every image seen in the public and every question raised about the structure of the story.
Enriched by the experience, the listeners will subsequently be able to transform and change reality. They are co-creators of the world while the
story is being told and can thus afterwards truly be co-creators of reality, the real reality. It is an utterly dizzying perspective.
Oral storytelling is a state, a state characterized by interaction.
A story that is told aloud does not just describe reality; it also transforms it
Two-Way Communication
For what purpose can a modern person in a stress-filled job use an oldfashioned form of communication like storytelling? Can't we just text a
message or write an e-mail? If we do that, haven't we communicated what we wanted to? If you hold a presentation, isn't the only important
thing that you select your very best PowerPoint slides so that your message gets through? If only your PowerPoint slides are good enough,
then youre sure that your audience will really listen and receive the message.
A big problem with modern means of communication is the amount of dead information they involve. There is so much noise in the transmission
that we spend most of our waking hours sorting relevant information from irrelevant.
The written statements and PowerPoint slides have one major weakness: They don't invite me inside. They don't need me. It's a done deal. The
communication or, rather, the flow of information happens even if you leave the room, eat watermelon, fall in love, die, or go to Hawaii. You are
not important.
Old-fashioned media books, radio, TV and the movies are characterized by one-way communication. It is impossible to change the
messages or form your own images. In the long run, it's not that interesting. I want to help create what is being told.
When I listen to a story, I know that I'm having a constant influence on it READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE HERE

In an oral performance the speaker is present and interacting with the audience so that the interpretation of the performance is necessarily a joint product of the speaker and listeners.
Neither author nor audience can claim sole authorship of the meaning.

Understand Business Narrative
When a story is told, a fellowship arises between the person telling the story and the person listening. Each listener perceives himself as co-creator of both the images that arise in his mind and the structure of the story.
This is a very effective way of communicating with your clients, your costumers, your employee or other stakeholders.
Using narrative and understanding narrative priciples brings commitment and sparks action.
