How to apply “storylistening” to rethink processes with Astrid Kirchhoff from hummingbirds
#023: In this episode, I’m speaking with Astrid Kirchhoff from Hummingbirds about how to apply storylistening to open up our perspectives to a new way of rethinking processes.
Astrid provides a broad explanation of how using the art of careful listening and the power of many authentic narrated experiences to better understand values, attitudes, and motivations.
We’ll get a deeper understanding of how humans are storytelling animals, mixed in with a three-step approach of storylistening, story collection, and understanding the story, can help you engage and understand your client’s goals and target as an expert, at a more in-depth level and execute their ideas, goals and true intentions, purposefully and effectively.
