Talk:Organizational storytelling

I agree - this is very confusing. A shame. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.219.11.96 (talk) 13:12, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Complex definition
The opening definition is confusing [It recognises the special place of narration in human communication, making narration "the foundation of discursive thought and the possibility of acting in common."]. I think we could do better. What about, "It recognises the special place of narration in human communication, making stories the foundation of meaning and action." We will need a citation for this sentiment. Story consultants should resist suggesting their own books. --User:Finrod.Ancalime (talk) 03:02, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

Jan 2008 Rewrite
Looking through the article it reads more like a marketing brochure than a Wikipedia entry. Many statements are made without qualification or supporting authority and the links to academic theory and consultancy practice are patchy. I plan to attempt some restructuring next week when I get time, however it seems sensible to announce that intent here and invite comment. --Snowded (talk) 06:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Totally agree. There's very little citation, and a huge chunk of references. I've been idly considering this article for a merge into a larger one (haven't found a good candidate) but a cleanup won't hurt and if you can get it to stand on its own legs, so much the better. Have fun! -- mordel (talk) 14:43, 28 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I am partly thinking that it needs to be renamed to reflect the use of narrative in organisations (which includes story telling but is not limited to it) with some radical pruning of the material to reflect a more neutral position.  I an not going to get a chance until the end of the week and will post an outline here first  --Snowded (talk) 17:28, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Otherwise useful, could use a division into sub-topics... repetitive at places. Needs to be organized better.--Coolpriyanka10 (talk) 09:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
