DESCRIPTION
Today the traditional way of doing business from my perspective, has at least one foot in the grave. Today’s organizations often demonstrate an inability to connect. However I believe that the ability to associate and connect is the basis for success in today’s hyper-connected world. Thanks to the Internet, people can meet and share stories globally and instantaneously like never before. The cloud is there for everyone, whereas in the old days selling your story to the world was reserved for the rich and the famous. In comes peer-to-peer storytelling.

ABOUT “WHY”
10 REASONS WHY CUSTOMER EMOTIONS ARE NOT BEING
EMBRACED BY BUSINESS
BUT…
1. Businesses have been traditional run by men. 2. Women are better at
understanding their emotions than men.
3. Businesses like logical/analytical people. 4. Most senior people in
organisations are 50plus years old.
5. Business is about numbers.
6. Business becomes more complex, reinforcing this
logical approach.7. Emotions are soft ,fluffy and
difficult to quantify.
8. Back in the day there was no product saturation.9. Emotions are hard to define
and the science is not precise.
10. Most leaders are macho types not the people who are experts on psychology and emotions.

My story?
In business a story is simply the recounting of an event that happened to you
or to someone you know, or even a narrative from another source
such as a movie or a book.
