Engage: The Parable Of The Pencil & Other Empowering Stories

If a picture paints a thousand words, then stories (and metaphors) tell a thousand tales. Every story can be interpreted by the reader differently, deriving a unique learning from it. This book starts with The Parable of the Pencil, a truly inspiring story, where Billy gives his personal interpretation to the classic tale of the five lessons given to the pencils before they venture into the big wide world.

ENGAGE: The Parable of the Pencil and other Empowering Stories is a compilation of some well-known stories, a few lesser-known ones and original narratives which will prove to be a valuable resource for any trainer, speaker or coach who is looking for metaphors to illustrate and inspire. Choose the story that will move your audience in its retelling. Be inspired by the metaphors that give each person their own interpretation and understanding.
