Once upon a time the practice of storytelling was about collecting
interesting stories about the past, and converting them into
soundbite pitches. Now it is more about foretelling the ways the
future is approaching the present, prompting a re-storying of the
past. Storytelling has progressed and is about a diversity of
voices, not just one teller of one past; it is how a group or
organization of people negotiates the telling of history and the
telling of what future is arriving in the present. With the changes
in storytelling practices and theory there is a growing need to
look at new and different methodologies. Within this exciting new
book, David M. Boje develops new ways to ask questions in
interviews and make observations of practice that are about
storytelling the future. This, after all, is where management
practice concentrates its storytelling, while much of the theory
and method work is all about how the past might recur in the
future. Storytelling Organizational Practices takes the reader on a
journey: from looking at narratives of past experience through
looking at living stories of emergence in the present to looking at
how the future is arriving in ways that prompts a re-storying of
the past.
