I used Campbell's "Hero's Journey" as a template for a work presentation to explain my team's research and product development work after a company wide re-organization. It worked surprisingly well to engage people. I ended up using Dan Harmon's circle w/ 8 stages, and threw in a couple gifs jokes as well.
The only downside is it took me about twice as long to develop the presentation: mostly getting all the important stuff in and covering the whole story circle in a balanced way. For situations where people already have context (internal team), it's probably better to just save people the time and not use the method, but when you need to make an impact, use the Hero's Journey!
