Narrative Strategies

“If I’m training Green Berets who are about to deploy into a low trust, dangerous environment, and I only have time to teach either tactics for close-quarters combat or narrative competence, I’ll teach the later. Every damn time.” Scott Mann Scott is an integral part of the Narrative Strategies Team and his most recent book will hit you hard. I challenge you to pick it up and try to put it down before you hit the back end. Take a look and then let’s talk: https://lnkd.in/g5fbfWDh General David H. Petraeus, US Army (Ret.)

"Many of our political leaders have abandoned the responsibility of civil discourse and want us divided to meet their narrow agenda. That's not how most Americans think. In fact, recent polling by More in Common shows two thirds of Americans (a super majority) are frustrated by the polarized division and exhausted by it. Regardless of how heightened and catastrophized things may seem...We are hungry to connect. Your clients want to move forward. Your employees want to make an impact. Your neighbors want to raise their kids and live a good life just like you."

"Narratives are precipitating factors. We can predict contagion rates by examining how well (or not) a story on the ground matches up with the cultural narrative." - Ajit Maan, Ph.D. in Narrative Strategies Journal Issue 8

"...know the narrative space. Know the roots and the deep roots of conflict in the region. Nothing that happens is a result of what happened yesterday. Yesterday may have been the earthquake, but the earth shook because of the tensions created in the years, decades, and centuries that preceded it." -Brian L. Steed in Narrative Strategies Journal - Issue 7 (https://lnkd.in/geiU4Y4r)

"Narratives are culturally embedded meaning-making structures through which we understand and create our identities...when you are effectively using narrative you are generally tapping into an unconscious narratives and triggering an unconscious response." -Ajit Maan, Ph.D., Founder and CEO of Narrative Strategies
