However, the lesson, " planning is
important " isn't simply memorable
because we were told it in a classroom
setting. We remember this lesson
because we had a lived experience. All
of us have a memory of how improper
planning or rushing into something
leads to errors and chaos. When we
recall why " planning is important, " we
don't see those words in a book in our
minds, we relive the memory that taught
us that lesson. For some, it was their first
time failing an exam because they didn't
study properly. Others may have had a
difficult conversation at work for failing
to meet expectations. For myself, it's the
story of my grandfather.
That's the power of storytelling. It allows
us to make knowledge personal, and
that is the key to unlocking true change.
When we're able to understand why
information is meaningful and connected
to our lived and learned experiences,
information translates into memory and
thus into action.
Building an
Inclusive Workplace
While the magic of storytelling is
becoming more of a science as it
Actively seek out and
understand the stories and
experiences of others.
becomes
more
recognized
for
the
powerful impact it has on our minds,
a new phenomenon is appearing:
Acknowledging what stories we might
be missing.
" We can't fumble this. " " This is an easy
home run for us. " " We're putting you on
the bench for this project. " I can't count the
times I've sat in a meeting and listened to
someone share one of these variations of
the same sports analogy. As a tennis and
volleyball player, I don't mind the allusions
myself. I have resonated with them many
times before. However, I'm not the only
person in a meeting.
In one meeting, I had two colleagues
join me to talk to a senior executive.
We were discussing a new program we
wanted to launch to support employee
engagement when the commonly heard
" home run " phrase was thrown out. I
nodded my head in agreement, but saw
my colleagues look confused. I quickly
responded by sharing, " I agree. This
program is an easy win for us with our
employees, " which immediately led to
nods and smiles from the other two.
After the meeting, they both came up to
me and thanked me for my translation.
Neither of them had heard the term
before and weren't sure whether the
person we were meeting with liked or
hated the idea we had been working on
for months. We made some jokes and
went our separate ways. However, as I
walked back to my office, I couldn't help
but feel a pit in my stomach.
While sports analogies can be empowering
and easy ways to express one's thoughts,
they can also create a feeling of being
" othered " for those who can't understand
the point. People go to great measures to
protect their self-perceptions and work
to develop a personal brand they can be
