>#4 Tell stories.
Great leaders are great teachers. And great teachers are great storytellers. “Narrative is how we learn. If you want to be a leader, you will teach and tell stories. The two are inseparable.”
When I hear this I can't help but think, narrative fallacy. Narrative may have traditionally been "how we learn", but recent research into biases and heuristics (Kahneman & Taversky especially) suggests it's not entirely reliable.
This bit of advice doesn't go into much detail on how telling stories is essential to leadership. Anyone have any experience on just what is meant here, and whether narrative fallacy is a concern?
