Storytelling pervades organizations’ communication. Managers, employees and consultants use storytelling in their everyday organizational practices to generate understanding, mobilize change, and foster a sense of belonging. The seminar will explore the use of storytelling in organizations by combining research contribution from the field with practical implication for the business community.
