Superpower Storytelling, with Stephen Steers
Whether you think you're a good storyteller or not, it's a skill worth developing. Today's guest, Stephen Steers, is the author of Superpower Storytelling. He walks us through how to get better at storytelling and why it's such a powerful tool in sales, in business, and in life.
Along the way, we discuss why it's so important to reframe sales not as a battle to be won with the right pressures and tactics but as a collaborative problem-solving exercise that helps everyone.
