Description
There is a paradigm shift happening in storytelling consulting. The old one-story-fits-all consulting paradigm-helping companies to brand their founding story, do elevator pitches, and deliver stump speeches-is giving way to quantum storytelling consulting. The quantum age has moved away from a mechanist, Newtonian, simple-cause-and-effect understanding of reality and life, and storytelling consulting is now about an ensemble of stories rather than a single pitch. It's about developing the spaces for storytelling processes; it's about the times when storytelling is emerging; and it's about the kinds of 'mattering' or material agency that the storytelling has. In the quantum age, space, time, and mattering have no separation; instead, spacetimemattering storytelling emerges, self-organizes, and creates change management. It is no longer the case that one narrative fits all. Rather, it is the interplay of many living stories that create the complex forces of change within organizations.
The Emerald Handbook of Quantum Storytelling Consulting collects the findings of quantum storytelling researchers and consultants to develop a practical understanding of quantum storytelling consulting by sharing case examples, describing how to enact specific practices, and outlining how to conduct research into the impact and consequences of quantum thinking.
About the Author
David M. Boje is a Professor, a Bill Daniels Ethics Fellow, and formerly a Bank of America Professor of Management at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, USA. David has published over 120 journal articles and 17 books, and he is the founder of the Tamara Journal for Critical Organization Inquiry. Mabel Sanchez is a PhD Candidate at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, USA. Her current research focuses on enslavement practices endured by farmworkers in the Southwest of the United States. Her experience working in the private, government, and public sector, and living in a variety of countries, has developed her research interests in storytelling, diversity, gender and organization, organizational change, and feminist research.
Reviews
This handbook brings together 18 essays that discuss consulting that uses storytelling and quantum physics, and its applications and research methods. Management, business, and other researchers from the US and Europe address the relationship between quantum storytelling consulting and ensemble leadership theory, as well as world ecology; quantum storytelling consulting, stress, and work-life balance; how to use quantum storytelling as an improvisational theater for social change; the theoretical contributions of fractal change management in relation to quantum storytelling theory and practice; and storytelling and organizational consciousness. They then address applications in terms of entrepreneurial storytelling, autism, sustainable education and professional development, supply chain management, specific companies, and other areas, as well as research methods for quantum storytelling consulting, including story metrics for the analysis of stories and mining data. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *
