Accelerate your development with these new learning opportunities within Books 24x7!

50 Lessons

The 50 Lessons collection features more than 1,200 interview presentations from some of the world's most respected and recognized leaders sharing personal experiences of today's most pressing business issues. Every lesson created is crafted around a real-life experience re-told by a renowned business leader as a story. Each story leads into a reflection by the leader on what he/she personally learned from the experience. Finally, in each lesson the leader extracts “take aways” from the experience, the central learning points that can be beneficial to anyone.

The storytelling approach to sharing knowledge has several distinct advantages:

Stories are memorable
Stories capture complex ideas succinctly
Stories engage audiences
Stories inspire people to act

Use one to begin your next staff/department meeting!
